There is time for a congregational prayer and oftentimes a children's message before the sermon is preached.

  • People come to Ferry Church dressed in a variety of ways. Women range from wearing dresses, dress pants and blazers, to a top or sweater with jeans. Men often wear polos with khakis, jeans, or dress pants-- A few choosing to wear suits. Both a casual or dressy style is appropriate for worship services here at Ferry.
