Who We Are

Making disciples of all people is central to everything we believe at Mission Community Church. The “mission” is about recognizing that you and I, and our families, are meant for more than simply working to pay off our bills and following whatever the new “trendy thing” is out there to occupy our time.

We have been called to spend our time, energy, and resources, on something bigger than ourselves and something that will have value in eternity. We have seen that God is real and his word is true. Therefore, we take Jesus’ instructions to be important and exciting. We believe our mission is to build God’s Kingdom through mission in community.

We love our people and we think that we grow best when we grow together as a community. Being “missions-minded” means that our church loves to serve. That is, we see ourselves as wanting to serve one another in the likeness of Jesus, who served us by lowering himself to the point of the cross in order that we might be forgiven of our sins and adopted into God’s family.

We hope that when you walk into our church service, you see the faces of people who care about you and the Gospel. We love people and think we grow best when we grow in community with one another as we are focused on the Great Commission. For Mission Community Church, this means we are intentionally missional in all we do and our approach is shaped by these core values:

Taking the Gospel to Chester and around the world

Celebrating all forms of genuine worship as reflections of the image of God being displayed through the church

Creating an environment of love, encouragement, unity, and accountability as we exalt Jesus

Lowering ourselves to serve others as Jesus served us

Making disciples who live the Greatest Commandment and the Great Commission

Recognizing our mission must fit within the greater purposes of God as we work alongside other believers in the faith

Desiring all followers of Jesus from every age and background to be welcomed and fully accepted into the family of God

Exercising good judgment by preparing and strategizing to be an effective sending church

Affirming the Baptist Faith and Message and the Apostle’s Creed, and remaining faithful to the truth of Scripture in all that we live, teach, and preach

Depending on the power of God to help us fulfill our mission
