​Enlist - About Us
We believe that Jesus Christ came into the world to reveal the fullness of God's love for us. And we  celebrate that love as we receive the good news of God's grace through our praise and prayer, the gathering around table and font as we share in the holy sacraments, our mutual journey of faith and our commitment to the community.
Encourage - You are Welcome Here
Ours is a welcoming congregation. We invite you to join us, as you are. And we encourage you to take part in the wide range of ministry opportunities offered here. Whether you desire to connect with God in Christ through worship, study, prayer or service, we have something for you.
Engage - Your Spiritual Journey
Faith does not grow in a vacuum. Getting Engaged, Living Engaged and Staying Engaged are key to a joyful, gracious, generous and purposeful life. We would love to join with you in worship. And we invite you to share in our discipleship and mission programs, becoming a part of our faith community as we seek to meet and share Christ together.



Mission Statement:
More than a landmark we are evidences of God’s loving Spirit in the center of Springfield. Comforted and challenged by the gospel of Jesus Christ, we strive to be a welcoming community that serves Christ by serving others with grace, hope and joy. At the intersection of faith and life, church and culture, Morris Avenue and Church Mall, we share God’s love through worship, education and ministries of healing, reconciliation and peace. We affirm the worth of all God’s children and seek to nurture each individual along the Way of Christ. Inspired by our heritage, we approach our future with hope and trust in the fulfillment of God’s purpose for this congregation.
