We're located in the NE Heights area of Albuquerque just off Tramway Blvd. between San Antonio and Paseo del Norte. 

Turn left off Tramway at the light at Tramway Terrace. Go 1 block and turn right onto Tennyson. We're at the end of the street on your right. 7834 Tennyson NE, Albuquerque, NM 87122. 

We currently offer one service each Sunday at 11:00 AM.  Our Contemporary Theology Group meets at 9:30 AM. Worship is held in our beautiful Sanctuary. Masks are optional.  You may also join us for live worship via Zoom or Live Stream on our Facebook page.  

Our worship services include prayers and liturgy associated with a “traditional” worship service. On the first Sunday of each month, we celebrate Communion, open to all who wish to participate. We have an amazing music department that shines. Music includes an organ, piano, a bass choir, a treble choir, a mixed choir of 35+ voices, a bell choir, and small ensembles. We regularly feature special music from guest soloists and groups. As worship services go, this service may still be more informal than many have attended.

We have reserved parking spaces for new visitors directly in front of the church. It's a short walk to the entrance, where you will be warmly greeted and assisted by one of our Ushers.

We are here to serve you and offer an extragavent welcome, however, we want to make sure you are comfortable, so nothing will be expected of you. 

We love and honor children, and they are welcome at all services; we have bags with coloring, books, and toys for children who stay in worship. 

 If your child is comfortable attending Sunday school, we'll take you and your child to meet the teacher and get your child registered. Professional childcare for children 5 and under is also provided from 9:45 am – 12:15 pm.

We dress casually and greet new and regular worshipers alike, with warmth and kindness. We strive to create a joyful, safe, and welcoming environment in worship and every aspect of our church life. We laugh a lot! We honor God with beautiful music from many cultures and languages. In preaching, our pastor seeks to be comforting, challenging, thought-provoking and inspirational.
