Welcome
to The Chapel Door. We are a community of faith with an open
door. 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
moved to our permanent location in the fall of 2008. We are located
at 32 Joe Jenkins Road just off Highway 74-A across from Angelo's Restaurant
in Fairview. We look forward to an opportunity to welcome you. Click

All
ages enrich our church with enthusiasm, energy and deep commitment.
Children are valued for all they bring to the fellowship today! We take
seriously our responsibility and privilege for providing them a solid
spiritual foundation. They enjoy creative and age-appropriate learning
opportunities in Sunday School, special activities and programs, and
they serve as Altar Servers, greeters and ushers in worship. Youth and
young adults bring a variety of interests, experiences, and gifts to
our family of faith. Median and mature adults enjoy a stable and committed
community of faith rich with determination and vision. Small group studies,
mission projects, leadership opportunities, and thoughtful discussions
result in meaningful relationships with each other and 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 as you have opportunity.
The
Christian Season of Pentecost is marked by a celebration of the
empowerment and presence of the Holy Spirit. It represents God’s
gracious, enabling presence actively at work among people, calling
and enabling them to live full lives as the children of God becoming
God's witnesses to the world.
