We serve in a little country church house that was built from bricks made from local red clay in 1869. The first congregation formed in 1870 in the German Reformed tradition. As the German Reformed denomination declined, it merged with the Evangelical church to create the Evangelical and Reformed Church.
In time, that denomination joined with the Congregationalists to form the United Church of Christ. Soon after, the congregation here left the denomination and began serving the community as an independent, New Testament church.
In 2019 after years of declining membership, a new congregation formed, calling itself Christ's Family Church. Pastor John Pistorius agreed to serve this congregation as he had the previous one. Christ's Family has grown since then and continues to meet twice weekly as we look forward to Christ's our Lord's return to gather His saints.
A lot has changed since then, but one thing is true, the Word of Almighty God has not changed.
After years of decline, the St. John's Reformed Church was forced to close. At the same time, a new congregation started meeting in the building that housed St. John's. This new gathering of believers called itself Christ's Family Church.
We have a small congregation that meets every Sunday morning at 11 am for worship. We enjoy lunch and fellowship after every Sunday service. All are welcome. We preach and teach the Bible!
If you are hungry for the Word of God, you have come to the right place. Feast! Yes feast!
Service Times
Worship Service begins at 11am. Complimentary lunch follows the worship service each week.
We have found your site so useful in many different ways. Sometimes when people can’t make it in to our sermons, they are able to listen to the sermon at home later in the week. We have some homebound members who regularly listen to the sermon this way. My wife is serving elsewhere in the church during the service so she enjoys listening to the uploaded sermons she misses. We are always surprised to see the different countries where our sermons are accessed! Just knowing that a lot of people listen to sermons who would never have heard them in any other way makes partnering with you worth it to me. People are out there who are hungry for the Word, who are nourished by the sermons on your site, and who are uplifted by this means of communicating God’s Word. It’s really invaluable for the spread of the Word.
