About Us

Our story, our beliefs, and our heart.

Where Our Story Began

Church on Main began with a simple hope: to create a spiritual home where people could gather, grow in faith, and care for one another and their community.

From the beginning, the vision was not just about building a church, but about building a community rooted in love, justice, and belonging. Over the years, that vision has continued to shape who we are.

As our congregation continues to grow, so does our commitment to being a place where everyone is welcomed, valued, and invited to explore faith together.

Mission Statement.

Church on Main is a worshipping community where we seek to follow the way of Jesus through:

      Love of God, self, others,
      Mission to all in need,
      And celebration of our diverse identities, including race, ethnicity, gender, nationality, physical and mental health, age, sexual identity, religious background, and social-economic status. We intentionally affirm and welcome all.

Our Promise to You

At Church on Main, you will always find a genuine welcome.

No matter who you are, where you come from, or where you are on your journey of faith, you are welcome here.

No judgment.

No expectations to be perfect.

Just open doors, open hearts, and a community that is truly glad you came.

What We Believe

Our faith is grounded in our love of God, neighbor and self.

The Bible

We believe that the Bible is the inspired word of God, written by human hands. It describes God’s love for all of God’s creation, including humanity. The Bible, through interpretation, reveals to us how to be better stewards of creation and how to love one another.

Trinity

We believe that God is Three in One, One in Three: Creator, Son, and Holy Spirit. God the Creator made all things both seen and unseen; God the Son gave his life for the forgiveness of sins and the reconciliation of God’s children; God the Holy Spirit moves us to closer relationship with God and with each other.

Jesus

We believe that Jesus was fully human, fully divine. He ministered to those who lived on the margins of society, ate with tax collectors and prostitutes, and preached the love and mercy of God to all people.

The Church

We believe that the church is a community of imperfect and error-prone people, who come together to support one another and our neighbors as God has called us to do, through love, compassion, mercy, and acceptance.

Inclusion

We believe in a radical inclusion of all gender expressions and identities, sexual orientation, creeds, backgrounds, ethnicities, and cultures. We look to intentionally welcome all people into community who seek to follow God’s message of radical inclusion and love.

Marriage

We believe that marriage extends beyond boundaries of race, class, or sexual orientation. Because God is love, we celebrate the love between two persons as a gift from God.
