In Person Worship
We are excited to be able to offer in person worship services again, even during the midst of COVID-19. We welcome all who feel safe gathering at this time to come, but we are taking several safety precautions and we encourage you to visit our COVID-19 Information page for the full details.
In addition to staying informed about our current safety guidelines, we also ask that you RSVP before attending. so we know how many are coming and can prepare our space accordingly.

Online Worship
We stream services on the Salem BC Facebook Page every Sunday at 11AM. Please come and join us together online! If you don't have Facebook or for some reason cannot access the page, services are also available each week on this page.
You can also find an easy to browse archive of our Facebook services over on our Stream archive page. We still encourage you to visit our Facebook page to view additional daily pastoral videos, blogs, and to interact with your fellow church members. However if for some reason you cannot use Facebook, or just want an easy place to browse messages, we hope this page will be a useful resource for you.

Salem is made up of welcoming folks just like you. Expect a loving environment and to be greeted when you come in. You can also expect a place for every age and stage of life. Bring your kids and parents alike!
Where do I go?
Salem's 22-acre campus has several buildings, so look for campus signs and maps at each entrance. You can also click here to view a campus map and our classroom map before your visit. It is likely that you will be greeted more than once when you come. Our volunteers are there to make your visit a good experience and point you in the right direction.

Where should I park?
Visitor parking is available near the front (south) entrance of Building D (where our Worship Center is located). Handicapped parking is available on the west side of Building D, as well as by the playground outside of Building B. Overflow parking is available in the gravel parking lot by the church office on Salem Church Rd. Curbside Greeters are usually available to help direct you as well. Click here for a campus map!
What should I wear?
What you wear isn't important to God, though your willing and open heart is. Come dressed comfortably, but please come ready to experience the presence of God! We are not trying to impress one another. You will see anything from jeans to the occasional suit, but mostly you will see people dressed in a comfortable, everyday style.
Worship Services
We have three worship services every Sunday in our Worship Center (Building D). We have volunteers ready to give directions if you need any help finding where we meet.
8:15 AM
Our traditional worship service is a blend of traditional hymns and choruses usually accompanied by piano and organ. The Salem Worship Choir leads congregational singing and sings anthems. The orchestra often joins the organ and piano to accompany congregational singing.
9:40 AM
Our contemporary service is the newest addition to the Sunday morning worship schedule. This service is simple, casual, band-driven, contemporary in style.
11:00 AM
Our blended worship service draws from the rich tradition of hymns, both ancient and modern, and utilizes a vibrant selection of contemporary worship music each Sunday. This service is a blend of the other two worship services at Salem and often includes Worship Choir, Orchestra, Praise Band, and many other ministries at Salem.
