Free Christian Church Of God

20799 State Route 15

In July 1986 twenty people (eight children), with nothing but a vision and a promise from God, began a new church.

The first worship service of the Free Christian Church was in a garage.  It was complete with a lown mover in the corner and bicycles hanging from the wall.  the seating was B.Y.O.L.C. (bring your own lawn chair).  The pulpit was an old music stand, scratchedand a little crooked from overuse.  The music was familiar choruses and hymns sung to piano music piped in over a homemade intercom.  The offering was taken in a small wicker basket conveniently placed on the workbench.  A playpen was set up for the infants, and there was even a junior church (in the family room of course).

Since those days God has blessed our fellowhip with numerous exciting ministries, a 10,000 sq. ft. worship facility, including a 450 seat sanctuary, daily and weekly progrmas for our church family and much more.  And we still believe that God has greater things in store.

In 2003 plans are under way for a 1,100 seat Sanctuary with the existing Sanctuary becoming a fellowship hall and the current fellowship hall & education wing becoming a Youth Center.
