Minister's Welcome

Welcome to our College Place church website! 

     We hope that you'll take some time to explore what our church has to offer. Our vision as a church is to be a “community of love and faith, training and nurturing disciples of Jesus Christ, equipping them with God’s Word, and spreading His redeeming love to every soul in need.”

      As you visit our website, we hope that you'll be enticed enough to visit our church. Come and experience God’s love embodied in a faith community. Look for the training opportunities we offer to help us follow in the footsteps of our Teacher, Jesus. We trust in the power of God’s Spirit and His Word to form us so that Christ’s redeeming love can flow through our service and witness.

     We are Christian first. We also happen to be United Methodist. We pride ourselves in becoming the church home for people from many different denominational traditions and those with no tradition at all. United Methodist churches seem to offer common ground for people.

     We began as a renewal movement within the church, and our desire at College Place is to be true to our roots by continuing to be a movement for renewal for the sake of Christ and His Body, the Church. Our church is open to people of all races, ages, and stages. The size of your bank account does not matter. You can come as you are or dress up if you want.

     The “door” most people come through into our community is the worship service. We offer two Sunday morning services: a more contemporary style at 8:45 a.m., which we call our “Experience” service, and a more traditional style at 11. If you would like to know more about our services, please click on the What to Expect and Worship links. 

     The Lord bless you in your life’s journey.
