Wekiva is a Christ-centered community devoted to honoring Jesus through worship and service. We are a family of faith where we welcome new faces and experience the presence of the Living God weekly. Through our worship, and various discipleship opportunities, we seek to demonstrate God’s love and remain grounded in God’s word.
Wekiva is committed to developing disciples who are rooted in scripture, shaped by worship, and formed in prayer.
They will be called oaks of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, to display his glory.
(Isaiah 61:3)
Wekiva is a place where the bond of Christian friendship and fellowship draws us into deep and meaningful relationships.
By this, everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.
(John 13:35)
Wekiva is called to strengthen its partnerships in the community as we meet the needs of our neighbors and share the Good News of Jesus Christ.
Truly I tell you, just as you did it to one of the least of these who are members of my family, you did it to me.
(Matthew 25:40)

We believe that an enriched spiritual life seeks to apply Biblical teaching so that our daily living reflects the teachings of Jesus. Our commitment to developing disciples will encourage scripture study and nurture a renewed heart of love for God and others. As we study scripture, we are shaped by the Word and begin to recognize our gifts and calling. Wekiva will provide opportunities to grow in faith while developing ministry gifts. To nurture a renewed heart, we commit to worship and prayer. Therefore, Wekiva will provide worship that uplifts the heart and glorifies God. Lastly, in times of conflict and confusing, we will seek to learn in a spirit of reconcilation and acceptance as a witness of the unity proclaimed in Scripture.

Our strenght in fellowship and hospitality will complement the Holy Spirit for growth and mission.
