Welcome to Eagle Christian Church

We are glad you have joined us today to worship. We want you to know that we have prayerfully planned this time together and that we do “church” on purpose. Our mission is to reach people with the gospel message of Jesus Christ, teach people to become devoted disciples of His, equip people for acts of service, and send them into ministry. As you join us today, we ask that you, also, be intentional in your worship of God and purposefully focus on your relationship with Him.

In His Service, Dr. Steven A. Crane

About Eagle Christian Church

As a Christian church we do not claim to be the only Christians, or the only church, but we seek simply to be known as Christians without a denominational label. We do not see ourselves as better than anyone else, but as a group of Christian people dedicated to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

We seek the unity of all people on the basis of confession and commitment to Jesus Christ as Lord. Our hope is to unite all Christians under the authority of Jesus Christ and pattern our lives after the Word of God.

Thank you for joining us for this informal time of worship and Bible study as we grow together in Christ.

We Believen That Jesus is God’s Son and our Savior.n That the Bible is the inspired Word of God.n In the physical death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.n That we are saved by grace through faith and there is nothing one can do to save himself.n That God exists in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.n In baptism by immersion for penitent believers.n In the second coming of Christ.

Women’s Retreat Update102 women focused on the Spiritual Disciplines of Bible study, prayer, contentment, and unity at the 2017 Women’s Retreat. New friendships were begun and God was glorified as women opened God’s Word in study, song, and worship. The ladies and camp managers greatly appreciated the help from the four gentlemen who went along to help in the kitchen, cook a portion of our Saturday noon meal, and do whatever needed to be done to free the women to gain as much benefit as possible from the weekend. Ladies, start planning now to be a part of this weekend on September 21–23, 2018.
