We have this as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul,
a hope that enters into the inner place behind the curtain

What To Expect
We recognize that visiting a new church can be intimidating so here is some basic information to make you feel more comfortable.
First of all, everything we do is centered around Jesus. We sing God-centered worship songs, teach a sermon out of the Bible every week, pray together, read the Word of God, have weekly Lord's Supper and celebrate Biblical Baptisms. It's casual in atmosphere and attire, and children are warmly welcomed!
As a church, The Anchor has a heart for serving our communities (and each other) in smaller, more intimate groups which we call Missional Community Groups.

Our Story
|
The Anchor exists to glorify God by raising and equipping a generation of followers of Jesus to have intimacy with the Lord, intimacy with others, and impact the world through Biblical disciple making and church planting.
Our story includes people, churches, time, prayer, and patience; But most importantly, it is a story of God's unending grace in our lives, His desire for people to know Him, and His faithfulness to His church. One by one, the Lord has been rescuing each person at The Anchor from their old ways and making them into new creations. This particular journey began culminating in August 2014 when Murray Van Gundy and a couple friends began to wonder if the Lord was now leading them to plant a church. They began praying, discussing the possibilities with grand excitement, and praying some more. The Lord took them on an adventure of trusting Him and waiting for God to work in His perfect timing. |
Eventually, by early 2015, it was confirmed. Through the Scriptures, through godly men and women uniting their hearts together, and through a peace that comes without understanding, The Anchor began to take shape. A team of followers of Jesus united, prayed, sought the Lord through the Bible, and began meeting, as God wove together an expression of His Church through His children. The doors opened in the Spring of 2016 for public worship and God has never ceased to prove His faithfulness to provide spiritually, emotionally, and physically.
This is God's church with a mission of drawing people into intimacy with Him, intimacy with His people, and impacting the Kingdom of God through the sharing of the Gospel and Biblical disciple making. Praise God for giving us a story that honors Him alone! He is truly our Anchor.
