WHO WE ARE
THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH - DISCIPLES OF CHRIST
A religious movement founded on American Soil in the nineteenth century, the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) grew rapidly and today congregations number nearly 4000 across the U.S.
We affirm Jesus as the Christ and accept all people as God's children. We celebrate open communion weekly; practice baptism by immersion; believe in a ministry of all believers; and hold to no specific doctrine except the essential Christian faith that Jesus is Lord and Savior.
MISSION STATEMENT

Provide Uplifting Worship Experiences
