Welcome and thank you for visiting our web site! You will find that we have provided information concerning our Association of churches, along with varioius ministries, mission efforts, training workshops, and activities. Our association is a warm and loving, and we sincerely invite you to call on us at anytime that we may assist you and your family.
Feel free to browse through the various areas on our site and learn about our twenty-one (21) sister churches, located throughout the counties of Lewis, Knox, and Clark of extreme northeast Missouri. If you are considering locating to our area, we would love to assist you in finding a place of worship where the Bible is taught as God's Holy and authoritative Word.
With JESUS Christ as our King and Bridegroom, our churches endeavor and strive to:
- Be loving and caring congregations that will gladly welcome you;
- Offer preaching/teaching that is centered on the inerrant, infallible, and authoritative Word of the LORD God;
- Operate as a true and functioning New Testament church;
- Be dedicated to the mandates of our LORD in Matthew 28:18-20 and Acts 1:8, i.e., the responsibility to win, baptize, and disciple lost sinners by taking the Gospel message to representative regions of "Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, and the uttermost Ends of the Earth."
- Be actively involved in ministries and mission activities that strive to meet the spiritual needs of every age; and
- Consistently offer themselves to their communities as a corporate outlet for Spirit-led, truth-filled, and God-focused praise and worship.
Our prayer is that you will consider the opportunities available to you and your family as our churches stand ready to welcome and minister to you in the spirit of Christian love and grace.
In CHRIST's service,
