We are a community of believers who live to serve the dream of God in Redding, California. We believe God’s heart is for each person to be connected to Him and His Body through the sacrifice of His Son, Jesus, resulting in the wholeness of spirit, soul, and body and the expansion of His kingdom within Shasta County. We are empowered to pursue this reality through Christ’s unconditional love for us and our love for one another. We pursue transformation in individuals and communities in Redding by demonstrating the love of Jesus through meeting practical needs, healing the sick, bringing deliverance, and preaching the message of Salvation through faith in Jesus.
The Benevolence phone line receives 50-100 phone calls each week from people requesting assistance with rent/lodging, utilities, food, gas, and medicines. Our Benevolence volunteers primarily minister to people over the phone by returning phone calls to gain perspective on situations, discussing each case with the overseer to see if and how we can help, and then informing each person about the decision made. Our goal is to facilitate an encounter with the Father in a way that changes the person’s life, whether we are meeting practical needs or ministering the love and power of Jesus.
Schedule: Tuesdays, 2:30pm-6:00pm
Location: Lake Building, West Entrance

Be part of the team that helps new believers take the next step in their faith journey! Once a month, at our Sunday night service, the Baptism Team teaches a class to those wanting to be baptized. You’ll get to encourage and minister to the baptism candidates and help facilitate their experience during the service. It’s amazing to witness each person making a public declaration of their faith in Jesus and encountering His resurrection life through baptism!
