Here at Apostolics of Salem, we believe in the transformative power of God's love.
Our church is not just a building; it's a family dedicated to celebrating and glorifying God in all that we do.
We embrace individuals from all walks of life, coming together to support one another as we journey towards a deeper understanding and stronger connection with Christ.
To put it simply, to be apostolic is to be like the Apostles.
The term "Apostles" refers the first-century church leaders whose lives and ministries were recorded in the New Testament Book of Acts. In Acts, certain attributes were used to describe the first-century church and its leaders. If a characteristic, quality, or attitude defined the early church, we want the same to be present and active in our church.
We are committed to loving God and loving others, and to be known for our love for one another.
We strive to glorify God through worship that is rooted in scripture, and that draws us closer to Him.
We are called to serve our community and those in need, through both physical and spiritual acts of love and kindness.
We seek to spread the good news of Jesus Christ to all people, and to share the gospel through both deed and word.
We prioritize the practice of discipling others in the faith, helping them to grow in their understanding of the Bible and their relationship with God.
We strive to be wise stewards of the resources God has given us, using them to meet the needs of the church and community.
We seek to foster unity in diversity, standing together as a church family united in our purpose of sharing God’s love.
We strive to be a holy people, living in obedience to God’s Word and in surrender to the transforming power of the Holy Spirit.
We seek to fulfill the Great Commission, making disciples of Jesus Christ in our region and beyond.
We take the Word of God as it is, at face value. That means we do not add to or subtract from the Word, but accept what is written as the unchanging, always-relevant message of God.
We believe that the Bible is the divinely inspired Word of God (II Timothy 3:16).
We believe that there is one true and living God (Ephesians 4:5; Deuteronomy 6:4), whose name is Jesus Christ (Colossians 2:9).
We believe that God’s plan for salvation as recorded in the New Testament is still the plan for His people today: repentance, water baptism, and being filled with the Holy Spirit (Acts 2:37-39; 8:16; 19:5).
We believe that the evidence of being filled with the Holy Spirit is speaking in other tongues (Acts 10:45-46).
What will it be like? What time does it start? What programs are available for my kids?
On Sundays we start with an hour of Bible classes for all ages, toddlers through adults, at 9:30 a.m.
At 10:30 a.m. we come together in the gymnasium for our main worship service. It will likely be the one of the most lively worship services you’ve ever attended. We don’t believe that God is deaf, dull, or dead. You’ll hear great music, experience demonstrative worship through song, and anointed, powerful preaching from our pastoral staff.
We would be honored for you and your family to worship with us!
