Who We Are

Open Bible Center is a loving and diverse church family.  We desire to grow in relationship with Jesus Christ and with one another.  Our heart is to share God's wonderful message of the Gospel with those around us. We believe God has gifted every believer to be His hands and feet to the world in which we live.

 

We are affiliated with Open Bible Churches, whose international headquarters are located in Des Moines, Iowa.

This association is made up of autonomous churches that are evangelical and charismatic/pentecostal in nature. We are an international family of Spirit-empowered churches, committed to glorifying God and fulfilling the Great Commission of Jesus Christ.
