Who We Are

Our Story

Birthed in a garage in 1979, we started out as a small group of four people intent on learning more about Jesus and welcoming our neighbors into shared life.
From the beginning, we have served our community as we strive to make Lincoln City the best place to live.
Though our hearts are here, our reach is global as we continue the work of Jesus until He returns.

Our Beliefs

In 1927, evangelist Aimee Semple McPherson founded our denomination: The International Church of the Foursquare Gospel.
The term "foursquare" means well-balanced and fortified. In addition, our church focuses on four aspects of Jesus' life and ministry:

Jesus the Savior
We believe that while we were still far from God, Christ died for us to sign the pardon of all who trust in him (John 3:16; Romans 5:8).
 
Jesus the Healer
We believe that Jesus still heals people today physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually, in response to the prayers of the church (James 5:14-16).
 
Jesus the Baptizer with the Holy Spirit
We believe that Jesus gives us the Holy Spirit in order to build up individuals and churches to live out their faith (Acts 2:4).
 
Jesus the Soon and Coming King
We believe that Jesus is coming back and that his return is imminent (1 Thessalonians 4:16, 17).

Our Values

WELCOME
Every person has a place at the table.
We need people of every age, gender, nationality, political belief and ethnicity to be the church of God.

COMMUNITY
We love to meet up for meals, coffee and conversations. We celebrate together and we also mourn together. We are there for each other: a family of Jesus followers.

MISSION
Our first mission is to our local community; to bring hope right here to Lincoln City, Oregon. Our second mission is to the ends of the earth; to bring hope light to a broken world.
