 Home > Church Information > Brief History

 WEST SIDE CHRISTIAN CHURCH is a congregation of persons who believe that Jesus is God’s Son and who have accepted him as Lord and Savior of all. We are forgiven sinners growing in grace toward spiritual maturity. We are a free church united under the name Christian. We owe no allegiance nor are we influenced by any hierarchy or organization other than Jesus. We affirm the Bible as the inspired Word of God, the authority for faith and living. We strive to be Christians only without denominational affiliation and rejoice that we are part of a great worldwide community of believers. Our local fellowship is led by men and women of faith under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. 

Our Vision is to see Lives Changed as they Connect with Christ and His Church.

Our Mission is to be a Biblically Functioning Community of Faith
that helps people Find God and
become
Fully Devoted Christ Followers.

In matters of Faith – we emphasize Unity
In the realm of Opinions – we exercise Liberty
In All Things – we exhibit Love

 Membership is defined by faith in Jesus Christ as God’s Son, the Lord and Savior of all, and expressed through a personal covenant relationship that includes: 

   Repentance – an admission of sin; a humble request for Forgiveness;
an ongoing resolve to live a changed life.
Confession – a simple statement of belief in Jesus as God’s Son, Lord of all;
a public acceptance of Him as your personal
Savior.
Baptism – {by immersion} an intentional and defining pledge to love Christ
and be His loyal disciple with all you are and have.

 We challenge Disciples...
· to be physically present {Worship & Fellowship}
· to emotionally participate {Service & Stewardship}
· to intentionally pursue God’s Kingdom {Discipleship & Witness}
