A Little Bit About Us   

Pleasant Street Church of Christ is a place for assembly of Christians people who have been born again, and who belong to Jesus Christ.  We are a group of imperfect people who are made one by our common belief and commitment to the Lord Jesus, the Son of God. Our loyalty is to Jesus, not to a human organization or creed.

Minister

We believe that the Lord has given clear and sufficient information in the Bible to direct the lives of all who will follow. Each Christian is encouraged to study the Bible for himself.

We desire to be Christians only, but we know we are not the only Christians in town. We love all of our brothers and sisters in God's family. It is our intention to make any Christian feel at home with us. You may be lonely, forsaken, depressed, or forgotten, but you will find a welcome at Pleasant Street as long as you are reaching out for a closer walk with the Lord.

We believe that baptism is a valid demonstration of one's faith and commitment to Jesus. It is in response to the grace of God, and performed by immersion, in which one is buried in the likeness of the death of Jesus, and raised in the likeness of his resurrection. At that time one crucifies the world to himself, through the power of the Spirit.

The Lord's Supper, which we observe each Sunday, serves as a constant reminder of the fellowship that exists between Jesus and his followers. We invite all who believe in Jesus to share it with us.

We must confess that we don't always measure up even to our own standards for righteous living. We try, but like other humans, we fall short of the mark. We may get angry when we should not; we may be neglectful; we may fail to be patient and tolerant with others. But our Father knows these things are because of weakness. We seek his pardon. We want very much to be like Jesus, so we "press on toward the mark for the high calling of God in Christ Jesus."

We believe in the indwelling of the Holy Spirit in the lives of God's Children, and we believe the Holy Spirit is a constant companion and helper, even though we grieve him at times. We believe that God hears and answers the prayers of his children. He is not dead and he has not retired.

Pleasant Street church has only one enemy--Satan. We regard every child of God on earth as our brother or sister. We receive each one as God has received us. We exist for one reason only--to glorify our Father in heaven. One way we do that is to serve others. We are here for those who need us. So, if you have never yielded to Jesus as Lord of your life, or if you are a believer looking for a church home, please contact us.

If you have a neighbor who needs prayer, or who would like to study the Scriptures with us, please let us help. We don't have the answer to all your questions, but we can point you to One who is the answer.
