Welcome to The Chapel Door. We are a community of faith with an open door. We gather for Bible Study at 9:45 a.m. and Worship at 11:00 a.m. every Sunday morning. Our worship style is born out of a congregational tradition rich with the hymns of faith, the reading of Holy Scripture, seasons of prayer, musical reflections, a message grounded in Scripture, and opportunities for personal renewal in an authentic relationship with God. We have discovered a way to celebrate liturgy in a warm and reflective atmosphere of personal and corporate worship.

We are currently located at 1334-A Charlotte Highway in Fairview. Click here for driving directions. On February 16, 2004 we secured land for our future home site and in November 2007 our modular buildings arrived in Fairview. We will move to our permanent location upon completion of the construction in February 2008. It is located at 32 Joe Jenkins Road across from Angelo's Restaurant just off Highway 74-A in Fairview. We invite you to join us now and once we have moved to our new location.

Young families enrich our church with enthusiasm, energy and deep commitment. Children enjoy Sunday School, choir, being included in worship, and participating in special activities. Youth and adults bring a variety of interests, experiences, and gifts to our family of faith. Small group studies, mission projects, leadership opportunities, and thoughtful discussions result in meaningful relationships with each other and a deeper, more authentic relationship with God.

As an ecumenical congregation, we welcome all varieties of faith traditions: Presbyterian, Methodist, Baptist, Catholic, Episcopalian, Moravian, Lutheran, etc. who profess Jesus Christ as Lord. Our door is open to all of God's children. Our church is inclusive of all people without regard to political affiliation, socioeconomic status, sexual orientation, gender, race, or ethnic origin. As the body of Christ we seek to be united in love, prayers, mission endeavors, and evangelistic efforts without compromising basic Christian ideals. We are fulfilling our call to be instruments in God's great plan to love and accept all people into the family of God. We welcome your interest, your inquiries and your prayers as we take these early steps of faith. Thank you for visiting us online. Please visit us in person at your earliest convenience.

The Chapel Door is an Ecumenical congregation welcoming all varieties of Christian traditions celebrating the unifying truth that Jesus Christ is Lord. We usually follow the Christian Calendar in worship and practice a style that is intimate and reflective.

The Christian Season of Pentecost and Ordinary Time celebrates the birthday of the Church and focuses on the mission of the community of faith. Jesus commanded the disciples to be his witnesses. He gifts the church with the Spirit of God who empowers the church to go and do and be Christ in the world. So often Christian believers fall into the trap of just living day by day with the promise of life everlasting. But with Jesus' promise of the empowering Spirit, people of faith live every day with the full knowledge and comfort of the companionship of the God. Through the indwelling Spirit of God, we become the body of Christ in the world. We see, know and experience God in relationship with brothers and sisters in Christ.

The Chapel Door exists to connect people to faith in God. We open our door to all people because Christ seeks an authentic relationship with all people -- with you, as your Lord.
