"..... And the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch" - Acts 11:26
The church of Christ is dedicated to following God's Word and living joyously under His care. We
follow Jesus as our example for living and strive to bring God glory by following His Son faithfully.
Our aim is to preach the truth in love (Ephesians 4:15) and share the gospel (good news) to every
creature under heaven (Mark 16:15). Since Jesus is "the author of eternal salvation to all who obey
Him" (Hebrews 5:9), our focus is always on Jesus, abiding in His Word (John 8:31), and abiding in
His love (John 15:9). We proudly call ourselves "christians," for we follow Christ to the best of our
ability and hope to one day live with Him eternally (Philippians 1:23).
"..... All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth"
- Matthew 28:18
We believe that Jesus is our only source of authority. We do not follow or teach the commandments
or traditions of men (Matthew 15:3-9). We believe that Jesus is the Head of the church (Ephesians
1:22), and that God speaks to us today through His Son (Hebrews 1:2). Therefore, Christ's New
Testament is our only source of authority for christian living.
"..... those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth" - John 4:24
When you visit our worship service you will find a group of christians gathered to give thanks,
praise, and adoration to God. Our service consists of prayer, Bible teaching, singing, communion,
and giving of our means. Our singing is distinct in that we do not use mechanical instruments of
music in worship; we sing only with our voices, making melody in our heart (Ephesians 5:19,
Colossians 3:16). We serve the Lord's Supper every Sunday to remember the death of Jesus (Acts
20:7). We also give our members an opportunity to give in support of the Lord's work in our
community. Nothing is expected from our visitors except that we may ask you to complete a
visitors card so we can have a record of your attendance.
