About Us
First and foremost, we are a caring and sharing 7th day Sabbath-keeping Christian congregation who believe the Bible is the authoritative Word of God in all things and in all circumstances. We are endeavoring to learn and live by the truth of God as revealed in the Holy Bible.
The most dearly held conviction of this congregation is the imperative for Christians to love and worship God and serve mankind in love, helping, praying for, and extending kindness to others, supporting various charities and in intercessory prayer.
We observe the annual Feasts of the Lord that Jesus observed while He was on the Earth, as they are the Christian holy days that teach God’s redemptive plan for mankind.
We currently host an annual Feast of Tabernacles celebration in McCall, Idaho. All Christians regardless of organizational affiliation or denomination are welcome to attend all of these events, worship with us, and share in the joy of Christ.
