Who We Are
Welcome to the Eastbrook Church web site. As Pastor, let me assure you that your presence here now is both a joy and a challenge. It is a joy, because we have discovered the overflowing life available through fellowship with Jesus Christ and we love to share it. It is a challenge, because we are just beginning to learn how to serve each other and we want to learn how to serve you also.
We want you to know as much about Jesus as possible, and to accomplish this we provide consistent exposition of Scripture during worship services and in-depth study through our Christian Education classes. In addition, Kinship Groups have been established throughout the city to provide warm, caring fellowship and encouragement to all who attend. We also have many special interest groups that meet throughout the week for fellowship and spiritual encouragement. There are countless opportunities for you to get involved and serve in the Church.
Eastbrook is constrained by the Great Commission of our Lord and is actively engaged in a growing ministry of identifying unreached areas of the world and supporting missionaries who go there. In addition, there are Outreach Ministries to various needy areas of our city. Participation in the life of the Church is dependent on your allegiance to Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. If you have not yet committed yourself to Jesus, we invite you at attend as often as you like and trust we can be an encouragement to you to get to know Him better.
We have agreed to a Doctrinal Statement and Church Constitution based on Christian truths and principle. We are aware that many godly people disagree with us on minor issues. We recognize that all churches in the city are Christ's and we intend to respect and encourage them all.
One truth we wish to stress early in a Christian's walk is the glorious truth that Christ indwells each believer. When we confess Him, He enters our heart and the Holy Spirit makes His resurrection life available to us moment by moment.
Although we are not affiliated with any specific denomination, we share with many churches around the world the same historic Christian faith found in the Bible.
People at Eastbrook are at many different places in their spiritual experience. Some are still investigating the Christian faith, others are seeking to grow in their relationship with Jesus Christ. None of us has "arrived," but we are pursuing the goal of knowing Christ in a more authentic way. We welcome those who are open to discovering more about Jesus Christ and following Him.
Welcome! We are glad you have visited our web site and we encourage you to visit our church if you don't have a church home. May the Lord richly bless you during these exciting days.
