Congregations Working In Covenant to Offer Ministry from Our Doorsteps to Yours

Welcome to the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) In Kentucky. Our congregations can be found all across the Commonwealth. If you worshipped in a Disciples congregation this past Sunday for the first time, I invite you to continue visiting as you learn about your faith in God as well as who Disciples are. Ask the minister to make a visit to your home to discuss your faith journey, questions, and talk about joining the church. It is our practice during worship to offer an invitation to anyone who would unite their life with a congregation through transfer of membership or by making a confession of faith for the first time. Our congregations are diverse, vibrant, and seek to serve God through ministries of Hospitality, Compassion, Peace with Justice and Care for Creation. Most importantly, no matter what Disciples congregation you visit, you will experience a community grounded in prayer, guided by scripture, and given to worship.

There are 242 Disciples congregations in Kentucky. They work together through a partnership called the Region to offer:
- Vision for what we (congregations and Region) can do together as we reach for our full kingdom potential;
- Program ministries for women, men, children and youth;
- Outdoor Ministry (church camp) for people of all ages;
- Crisis Care for Pastors and Congregations;
- Relocation Assistance to Congregations Seeking a Minister;
- Relocation Assistance to Ministers Seeking a new call;
- Nurture and Oversight for those answering a call to ministry through seminary training for ordination or licensed ministry for a specific congregation.

Blessings,

J. Gregory Alexander
General Minister, Christian Church In Kentucky
