Life Christian Church is a thriving body of believers existing to love God with all their hearts and living their lives to glorify Him. The church is solidly founded upon the Word of God, the Worship of God and upon World Evangelism. From the church’s origin in a hotel room in the Viking Lodge, to the Little Church in the Valley, to the IGA store, and up until the present facility, this foundation has remained a constant.
Life Christian Church was birthed from a God breathed, life-changing vision given to Pastor Rick Shelton in June of 1979. In that vision he could see himself preaching the Word of God to a vast sea of humanity. As the people were discipled, they would then join him in ministering to the needs of the sick and the hurting that were among the crowd. Pastor Rick saw a vibrant congregation composed of a multitude of believers actively growing in Christ and fulfilling their God given destinies. The mission of the church today remains driven by that 1979 vision.
Thousands of people have been discipled to reach the world with the love and power of Jesus. Tens of thousands more are to follow. What began with nineteen people has now grown to become the church home to more than two thousand families.
The intense love that Pastors Rick and Donna have for this church and for God’s vision can be felt by all who know them. The vision continues to manifest as the church reaches out to the world with the unconditional love of Jesus Christ.
