Our Story

How it all started...

South Elmdale Congregational Church was founded in 1897.... .


Expanding the vision...

It is our desire to be used by God to reach both our local community and the world with the  good news of salvation -  that Jesus Christ paid the penalty for our sins by dying on the cross and that God accepted that payment and signified it by raising Jesus from the dead.

"Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in[a] the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”
- Matthew 28:19-20

A MESSAGE FROM THE PASTOR

These years as the Senior Pastor of Community Country Church have been thrilling to say the least. I'm not most excited about the new building as wonderful as it is, or the beautiful view and visibility of this new ministry center. We truly want to reach the unchurched and what I am most excited about is seeing the Kids' Bible Club Program and S.W.A.T. (Students with a Testimony) expanding. It warms my heart to see people turning to the Lord. We stopped taking attendance at church because in the end nickels and noses mean nothing. Changed lives are the mark of a church where God is at work.  We will continue to preach God's Word. Christ is the only answer for the problems of today. We will continue to lift up Christ so that all will see how beautiful a savior. Join us in this endeavor!

In Christ's Love,
Pastor Greggrey A. Valentine
