"Disciples of Christ: A Movement for Wholeness"
Today's Scripture
Welcome!
We are a church who believes that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the living God, and we proclaim him Lord and Savior of the world. We are also a church on a mission to make followers of Christ, baptize them into the fellowship of believers, teach them the Good News, equip them for ministry, and send them out into the world to show the love of Christ.
The messages and songs of worship all reflect this strong belief, and you will discover that this is a place where you and your family will feel welcome just as you are each time you step through the doors.
With ministry opportunities available for all those who love the Lord and want to serve God, you will find that your purpose in life will be greatly enhanced as a result of becoming involved in our fellowship.
There can be great strength and encouragement through the trials of life within a church family, as well as great joy by having a group around you who will rejoice with you in your times of rejoicing.
No, this is not the “perfect church.” However, I believe you will find it to be a church that will minister to you, and in turn, give you opportunity to minister to others.
I invite you to join us as together we become followers of Jesus the Christ. If there is anything we can do for you, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Peace and Joy!

- What time do the services start?
Sunday’s are a big day of worship and praise for us. We begin the day in the sanctuary with a very traditional service of hymn singing, music, message by Bro. Don and Communion at 9 am. At 10 am we offer Bible study groups for all ages. In the renovated Fellowship Hall on the north end of the building at 11 am many of us gather for a much more contemporary time of worship and praise which we call Bon Temps because we have a good time praising our God. Dress is casual in this warm and inviting setting. On any given Sunday you may find some of us sharing a meal or sending out for pizza at noon and enjoying the sport of the day on TV until 5 pm when some of us usually . . . eat again! When the tables are cleared, we begin another, bit more upbeat praise service with Bro. Chris and musicians leading the music and Bro. Don teaching from the Bible in a question and answer style. We call this gathering The ROCK (come find out why). This praise time aims to be different and welcomes people of all persuasions. Bring your questions and try to stump Bro Don. You may notice that we love being together and really love new folks. Come be a part of the action.
