Youth Pastor

Youth Pastor About the Church

Faith is a non-denominational church, which means we align doctrinally with the teachings of the Bible, fellowship with like-faith churches, and hold no denominational ties. We view the Bible as the foundation of all our beliefs and take Scripture at face value without applying personal or social opinion. The mission of Faith Christian Church is “to develop followers of Christ who love God, love people, and intentionally invest in others.”

Our vision is “to be a church outside our walls, purposely engaging our community with the Gospel in everyday life.” These statements guide our ministry and shape everything we do  are excited to add to our church family by introducing another full-time pastoral staff position.
