"We are Disciples of Christ, a movement for wholeness in a fragmented world." 

 

First and foremost, you are invited!  At our heart, we are a table fellowship.  We celebrate communion every week as the focus of our worship.  "We welcome all to the Lord's table, as God has welcomed us."  It is around the table where our individuality is celebrated, our diversity is honored, our spirits are nurtured, our relationships, our covenants, our faith and our theology take shape.  Please join us!

 

First Christian Church is a member congregation of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ).  Here's a link to our denominational web page.  Disciples identify through covenant relationships in ministry, not through specifically-espoused doctrinal beliefs.  Here, you'll find yourself among a community of people who are creating wholeness in our lives in the context of our relationships with God, self, and other.  We come from many backgrounds and faith walks, yet we accept each other without judgment, and try to live out Christ's example of of unconditional love and radical welcome, no matter if you believe in God some of the time, all of the time, or none of the time.

We're here for you!

We'd love to have you join us for any worship, education, fellowship or mission activity. We want you to share yourself with us, and we want you to feel comfortable enough to participate as much or as little as you'd like.

But we'd love for you to join with us!

What if i'm already baptized?

Your baptism in any other congregation or denomination is completely valid, no matter the method.  You can simply transfer your membership from any congregation to ours.  Just speak to our Pastor, and we'll send a letter of transfer to your previous congregation.  We also have an associate membership, if you've moved here and want to be fully part of us, but still want to maintain ties to a beloved congregation somewhere else.

WHAT IF I'M NOT BAPTIZED?

Disciples of Christ normally practice baptism by immersion when a person has come to belief in Christ as Savior.  If you've never been baptized, we'd be pleased to walk that journey with you.  It's easy!  Simply contact Pastor Molly about your intention to become baptized.  You can do that by filling out the form at the bottom of the page.

Do I need to be immersed?

No!  Although immersion is the "norm" for us, if you don't want to be immersed, or if you're unable to climb into the baptistry, we'll make arrangements for baptism by pouring or sprinkling.

What If I don't want to join...

 

 

We make disciples, not members!

We're not after your membership -- just a relationship!  However, becoming a member may help you feel a deeper connection with the community.  But otherwise, we consider you to be "part of the community" whether you're a member or not.  Because our mission is to help you be a disciple -- not a member.
