Hi all. This is my first post in this forum as I live in Las Vegas but I've found people are generally pretty helpful on city-data so I thought I'd take a shot.
My sister-in-law, brother-in-law and their three kids (13 year old boy and twin 11 year old girls) just relocated to your area from the Palm Springs, CA area. He's working at Duke Medical Center and the family is living in Creedmoor.
Back in California they went to a contemporary, rock-and-roll type, non-denominational church. So far, they're having a bit of trouble finding something that has the same type of feel.

Since moving to NC they've been to a megachurch with 5000 in attendance and they got seated in an auxiliary room where they watched the whole service on a screen. It felt too impersonal to them. The same with another church where there were 2500 in attendance.
Is there anything within about a half hour more of less from Creedmoor that is contemporary, non-denominational and has a somewhat more intimate feel? Like a few hundred at any service, for example? They were quite close to the pastor and many of the parishioners of their old church and I know they would love that again. I am sure they would be willing to drive further for the right place. Church is very important to them.
Should also mention that they are a mixed family of white and Hispanic so obviously it is important that they would feel welcomed.
Thank you in advance for any input!
