Welcome
What a joy it is to introduce you to our church! You'll discover that our passion is to provide a place where people just like you can have a life-changing experience with God.
At Greater Pleasant Hill, our doors are wide open to people from all backgrounds, regardless of where they are on their spiritual journey. We don’t expect anyone to show up a super Christian. And certainly there are no super Christians here. We admit we need God and each other to fulfill our God given destinies. Come as you are and enjoy our powerful worship services that offer biblical truth in creative and practical ways.
But it won't take you long to discover that we're more than just a Sunday church. In fact, our goal is to establish a network of life groups. And if you'd like to develop authentic and enduring relationships with others, you'll be glad to know there are opportunities to join many of the ministries we offer.
Together, we're striving to become the kind of church described in the Bible, where there's down to earth teaching, heart-felt worship, honest friendships, constant prayer, and compassionate care for those in need. In short, we'd like to have the kind of contagious Christianity that can influence and encourage the entire community, one life at a time.
So whether you're a spiritual seeker who's just starting to ask questions about God, or a committed Christian who wants to use your gifts in or lead a life group, you can find a home here at Greater Pleasant Hill.
Enjoy, and please contact us if you have any questions.
God bless you,
Rev. Demetrius Griffin, Pastor
