The Christian
Church is made up of
approximately 6000
cooperating, independent
congregations in the U.S.A.
with a strong foreign
missions presence throughout
the world. We are
congregationally governed
with no official or
authoritative organization
beyond the local church. The
Christian Churches were
recently recognized in a
religious poll as the
fastest growing Christian
body in the U.S.
Christian Churches accept
without reservation Jesus
Christ as the divine Son of
the Living God, and the
Bible as God's inspired Word
and sufficient for faith and
practice.
We observe the Lord's Supper
weekly as a simple memorial
of our Lord's atoning death.
Each person worshipping here
is invited to participate in
this communion with us.
We wear the name mentioned
in the Bible for the
followers of Christ-
Christian (Acts11:26). We do
not claim to be the only
Christians, but Christians
only. We adopt no rule of
faith and Christian practice
beyond the Bible ((2Tim.
3:16,17). We practice
Christian baptism, the
immersion of the penitent
believer (Matt. 28:19) upon
his or her confession of the
Lordship of Christ (Rom. 10
9,10). We believe that
Christ actually and
literally was crucified,
dead, was buried and was
resurrected from the dead
and will return as
prophesied to receive His
own.
