What's the worship music like? mostly contemporary. sometimes just one voice and guitar and piano, sometimes 2 voices and use of other instruments etc.

What's the speaking like?
Culturally relevant and Biblical. no evening service. English translation available for visitors (ask Nancy)

What's the childcare like? Sunday school available for the small ones and youngsters (talk to Dan)

What's your favourite thing? the location, it's very multicultural, the Café Colombe for students! (café bar through which I came to Christ) and the 24/3 prayer happening once ev month/other month(?)

What would you change? maybe needs more (especially French-speaking) volunteers. it'd be great to see more families; because there's lots of students people usually come and go.

Can I wear jeans? please do! :)

Thank you for sharing your experience. It is difficult to find a church that suits you and your family's needs. I have been a member of Universal Life Church for some time now and it is a great experience. The pastors are very friendly and personable.
