Frequently Asked Questions

In Light of the Virus

Thanks for visiting Woodmen on the web. Out of care for our neighbors and in compliance with government directives, we’re not meeting face-to-face for a while. While much of this page doesn’t apply today, we’ve left this info here for you to catch a vision for how we’ll gather and connect and serve when we come together again. To get the latest info on how you can join in the ways we’re following Jesus and doing church during the virus outbreak, click HERE.

The following are some typical questions that newcomers ask about our church.

Q. WHERE DO MY KIDS GO?

Q. DOES THE CHURCH OFFER COMMUNITY GROUPS?
  • A: Yes
    Information on how to connect with a community group is available at Connect Central. Our community groups are Bible-based and typically held in someone’s home. They are a great way to get connected with other believers and grow in your faith. for more info, click here.

Q. IS WOODMEN AFFILIATED WITH ANY DENOMINATION?
  • A: No
    We are an independent, non-denominational church. We align in conviction and purpose with other gospel-centered, bible believing churches both past and present who ascribe and submit to the rich, historical creedal affirmations of Scripture, such as the Apostle’s Creed and the Nicene Creed.

Q. HOW IS WOODMEN GOVERNED?
  • A: We are staff led and elder governed.
    Our Lead Pastor of Teaching and Vision serves as an elder and is accountable to our elder board. Woodmen Valley Chapel is both a civil corporation and community of faith, which subscribes to the eternal truths outlined in our Statement of Faith. The Statement of Faith does not exhaust the extent of our beliefs. The Bible itself, as the inspired and infallible Word of God that speaks with final authority concerning truth, morality, and the proper conduct of mankind, is the sole and final source of all that we believe. For the purposes of Woodmen Valley Chapel’s faith, doctrine, practice, policy, and discipline, our Elder Council is the final interpretive authority on the Bible’s meaning and application.

Q. DO YOU OFFER COMMUNION?
  • A: Yes
    Communion is served on a regular basis during the worship services — generally once a month. For those who desire a more frequent experience, there are self-contained communion kits available at each worship venue at the front tables. Staff members and elders who are up front at the end of the service can assist you with these elements. They are also there to pray with you if you desire.

Q. I MISSED THE WEEKEND WORSHIP SERVICE. CAN I WATCH OR LISTEN TO THE SERMON?
  • A: Yes

Q. CAN I GET BAPTIZED?

    For those who have received Christ, we practice baptism by immersion, and it is offered three to four times a year during our weekend services. To find out more, contact the church office at 719.388.5000 or go to our baptism page.

Q. DO YOU OFFER CHILD DEDICATIONS?
  • A: Yes
    Parent-Child Dedications are conducted after the completion of our Parent-Child Celebration class. For more information, contact Woodmen Kids.

Q. DO YOU OFFER SIGN LANGUAGE INTERPRETATION?
  • A: Yes
    At the Rockrimmon campus on Saturday at 6 pm and at the Woodmen Heights campus on Sunday at 11 am.
