We are
Real People
We are a community of believers who are saved and changed by grace. We believe in multicultural and multigenerational ministry whose intention is to glorify God by serving others in love.
We believe that everyone should come as they are to the feet of Jesus, and He is capable of transforming a broken and contrite heart into a renewed soul that brings Him joy.
Our gatherings are casual but we make it a priority to focus our attention on God's Word and to give Him all the glory in everything we do.
Our Purpose
Our purpose is to worship God, proclaim the joy of the Gospel, and build mature followers of Jesus Christ.
Our vision is to fulfill the Great Commission by seeking the lost, and growing mature, joyful followers of Jesus Christ.
We desire that everyone be grounded in God's grace, know and reflect God's Word, and equipped to minister to each other, the community, and the world through their spiritual gifts.
Regeneration Church is a member of the Lutheran Brethren.
