Our Story
Every church has a story of God's faithfulness. Here's ours - a journey of faith, growth, and God's amazing grace through the years.
The Beginning
Where it all started
Seventh Day Sabbath Church Of Christ began as a small group of believers who felt called to establish a church that would faithfully preach God's Word and serve the community with love and compassion.
What started with just 15 families meeting in a rented community center has grown into a thriving church family of over 500 members. Our founding pastor, Rev. John Smith, had a vision for a church that would be both deeply rooted in Scripture and actively engaged in meeting the needs of our community.
"We wanted to create a place where people could encounter God's love, grow in their faith, and make a real difference in the world."
- Rev. John Smith, Founding Pastor
Growing in Faith
Building our foundation
By 1995, our congregation had outgrown our original meeting space. Through the generous giving of our members and God's provision, we were able to purchase land and build our first permanent church building.
This decade marked significant growth not just in numbers, but in spiritual maturity. We launched our first missions program, established multiple ministries, and began our community outreach initiatives that continue today.
Expanding Our Reach
Embracing the future
The 2010s brought new opportunities for ministry and service. We expanded our facilities, launched online services, and began supporting missionaries around the world.
Our youth and children's programs flourished, and we established partnerships with local schools and community organizations. Through it all, our commitment to biblical teaching, authentic worship, and compassionate service has remained constant.
