One Morning, Three GatheringsCome for the morning,
Come for the morning,
stay for the family.
Our very first gathering brings everything together in one welcoming morning — Coffee & Conversation, a worship service, and a Bible study. All are welcome. No experience with church required.
Coffee & Conversation
Coffee. Conversation. The Word. Community. A relaxed, welcoming time for real conversations and genuine community — whether you're new to faith, returning after time away, or just looking for a place to belong. You don't have to have all the answers to pull up a chair.
Worship Service
A simple, sincere time of worship and a message of hope. No matter your background, you belong in this room.
Bible Study
We'll open the Word together and discover what it means to be planted by streams of water (Psalm 1:3).
FREE Coffee & Doughnuts
Arrive a few minutes early and say hi. Free coffee, warm doughnuts, and real conversation — that's how every Planted morning begins.

Our Heartbeat
Discover. Grow. Serve.
These three words shape everything we do. Long before we ever gather in person, you can journey with us on YouTube — teaching, encouragement, and a glimpse of who we're becoming together.
Discover
Who Jesus is and what it means to follow Him — no jargon, no pressure, just honest seeking.
Grow
Roots going deep through Scripture, prayer, and community. Real life change, one step at a time.
Serve
Love made tangible. We bless our city with the gifts and grace we've been given.

Built for what's next
From a seed to a sheltering tree.
Planted Ministries is designed for the long haul. This first gathering is just the beginning — a church rooted in Scripture, growing in love, and reaching outward for years to come.
Our Vision
To see people planted in Christ, rooted in His Word, growing in faith, and serving others with purpose.
Our Mission
We help people discover who Jesus is, what He has done, and what it means to follow Him. We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to hear the Gospel, encounter the presence of God, experience salvation, and discover their identity in Christ.
01
Planted
We begin as a seed — a small gathering of people trusting God for something new. Every great movement of God starts with a few, planted in faith.
02
Growing
Roots deepen and branches reach. We grow in Christ together through worship, the Word, and genuine community — not perfect people, just people being made new.
03
Bearing Fruit
A tree planted by streams of water bears fruit in season. We exist to bless our city, multiply disciples, and plant more churches in the years to come.
“He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither.”
What we value
Roots that hold us steady.
These core values flow from our vision and mission. They shape how we worship, how we grow, and how we love our city.
Christ at the Center
Jesus is the root of everything. We exist to help people discover who He is and what He has done.
Rooted in the Word
Scripture is our foundation. We open God's Word together and let it shape our lives.
The Presence of God
We make room for people to encounter God personally through worship and prayer.
The Gospel for Everyone
Everyone deserves the opportunity to hear the Good News and experience salvation.
Identity in Christ
We help people discover who they are in Christ — loved, redeemed, and called.
Serving with Purpose
Faith grows hands and feet. We serve others and bless our city with intention.

Whether you've walked with God for years or you're just curious, they would love to meet you, hear your story, and pray with you. Come as you are — there's a seat saved for you.
