Our Mission

The perfect place for imperfect people.
Our Core Values
Your Next Step is The Most Important Step
Growth and change are a natural part of life and that's the same with your faith. We believe that if you're not taking your next step then you aren't growing and you're missing out on all that God has for you.
The Perfect Place for Imperfect People
Because we believe in the Gospel and God’s grace, we realize that no one is perfect. There are no perfect people; the only perfect one is Jesus Christ.
We're Better Together
No one was meant to live life alone. Being in a community of people that will support you, pray for you, and love you is vital to the Christian life. Small groups and serving aren't just things we DO, it's core to who we ARE.
We Embrace the Mess
There are no perfect people at Still Waters Church and we could not be happier. When Christ changes us it's not always an overnight transformation, grace can be messy. We embrace the mess because that's what Jesus does.
Generous People are Happy People
We've all heard it said that it's better to give than receive. We believe that it's better to live opened handed lives that can receive God's blessings.
Participation is Membership
People often ask how to become a member of Still Waters Church. We don't have traditional church membership, no votes or anything like that. So being a "member" of Still Waters means you are participating. It's just that easy. Participation in giving, serving, small groups and owning the vision and making it a part of your life. You can attend the Next Step Class to learn more and join the church.
Inviting is Evangelism
A lot of times the term "evangelism" can be daunting, especially if you don't feel qualified to live up to it. For us, it's simple, when we invite our friends and family to be a part of a church that IS evangelism.
Our Statement of Faith
In essential beliefs - we have unity. Ephesians 4:4-6
In non-essential beliefs - we have liberty. Romans 14:1,4,12,22
In all our beliefs - we show charity. I Corinthians 13:2
Take Your Next Step.
Your next step is your most important step.
At Still Waters Church, we believe that your faith journey is more than a one-time decision. Receiving Christ is just the first step. We believe every person must be in a growing relationship with Jesus Christ. That is why we say your next step is your most important step. Constantly taking your next step is how you grow closer to God.
At the end of every month, we have our Next Step Class on Sunday, after the 11:00 AM service.. There are four different sections that will teach you some fundamental steps for your Christian growth. If you are new to faith or to Still Waters, then this is where you start. This class will equip you to grow closer to God, to read the Bible and pray more effectively, to connect with people in a meaningful way at church, to make friends, to use your gifts to serve God by serving others, to manage your finances in a way that God blesses, and to invite others to experience Jesus in their lives.
If you wish to become a covenant member of Still Waters, then you will need to take this class. The class is taught in a small group environment, taught by Pastor Ritchie and one of our elders, and is designed to feel like sitting around a table, talking with friends.
The Four Sections taught in the class:
