Calling all members and friends of
Historic First Christian Church, Disciples of Christ
Historic First Christian Church, Disciples of Christ
On June 30,2019 at a called congregational meeting we decided to stop Sunday Worship effective
July 28, 2019. This is not a sudden decision for us as we had discussed this over the last year in congregational discussions. We have been nurturing a new ministry out reach the the last two years called Way Collective. It is doing quite well with Pastor Tim leading. It far out reaches the Sunday services in numbers attending. It also has a wider appeal as it's members include small children and adults of many different ages.
After much discussion and many prayers, we believe God is calling us to step out in faith, to use our resources to nurture this new outreach. This was not a step we took lightly. After 131 years in Santa Barbara ministry, it was a hard decision to make.
Please join us Sunday July 28, 2019 at 10:30 for our last Sunday service.
