and works of Our Great God.

New to Salem Heights?

Welcome! We are glad youre here! We invite you to
seek out the folks wearing the Ask Me badge.
Through them you will find information about the
ministries of Salem Heights Church and how to
become involved. Please fill out a Visitor Card and drop
it in one of the offering boxes as you leave or scan this code to go
directly to our website and fill out a visitor card. We have an excellent
nursery and programs for children newborn through high school. Any
of the ushers will be happy to direct you to the proper classroom. If
you feel more comfortable having your infant with you during the
service, the last row in the Auditorium will be reserved for parents with
small children. There is a private room for nursing mothers across the
hall from the Auditorium with a rocking chair, changing table and
portable crib. For your convenience, it also includes a monitor to
enable you to still hear and view the service.

Giving Update
THE MINISTRY OF SALEM HEIGHTS CHURCH
The ministry of Salem Heights Church is funded entirely by the
generous giving of Gods people. You will notice that we do not
pass the offering plate; however, there are offering boxes in the
back of the auditorium. We have done this so no one gives out
of compulsion. We believe from the Word of God that the Spirit
of God will lead people towards giving back to God of their first
fruits. ...God loves a cheerful giver (2 Cor. 9:7) and we know
He blesses those who take His Word seriously in every regard.
Thank you for prayerfully supporting Salem Heights financially as
we desire to reach the lost and disciple the Saints.
