Evangelical church?

I have recently relocated to another state & have met someone who attends the Evangelical church by my home.  I have been raised Catholic and have not been to any other religious service, but have attended AWANA as a preteen.  Could anyone tell me about the Evangelical faith?  What to expect if I attend a service? etc..


Thanks in advance.

I don't know anything about that church either,
and seems like alot of churches out there have
the word Evangelical as part of their name.

But I would think they have the same basic
beliefs as the mainstream denoms.

I, too, was raised Catholic. Then at 18 started
going to a small non-denomination church that was
very spiritfilled, which I loved.

Please let us know how the service was, etc.
