Who we are

We are a new non-denominational church in Brandon, embarking on an exciting journey of growth and community. Currently, we’re in a gathering phase, preparing for our official launch in early 2025.

Join us Sundays for worship at 113 N Splitrock Blvd, at 10 am and engage with our outreach events throughout the areal as we build towards our launch. Whether you’re passionate about Jesus, pioneering new initiatives, or simply enthusiastic about church planting, we invite you to be part of our journey!

Our mission and purpose

Our mission is to cultivate a vibrant community where being the church is not just a concept but a way of life. We are committed to actively demonstrating the love of Christ in tangible ways within our community.

Our purpose is to REACH new people for Christ, RENEW relationships with God and the Church, and RELEASE people into their callings and giftings as God leads them.

While many churches are doing great work, we’re on a mission to RE-define what it means to be a church in our cultural context. In the Midwest, churches often serve as comfortable Sunday destinations. Our vision is to shift the focus from “going to church” to embodying the essence of church every day. We aim to RE-define “church” from a place to a community of believers with a biblical mission to GO, DO, LOVE, and SERVE.

A decade ago, nearly 70% of Americans identified as Christian. Today, that number has dropped to around 50%, indicating a shift away from Christianity as a cultural norm. Our goal is to provide a space for individuals to RE-engage and RE-church. Regardless of your church background, we welcome you and your family to join us as you RE-discover your faith within a supportive church community.

What we believe

We affirm that the Bible is the true and authoritative word of God.

We believe in the necessity of new birth in Christ.

We acknowledge the triune nature of God (Father, Son, Holy Spirit).

As followers of Jesus, we understand ourselves as part of the “Big C” Church, joining with all believers worldwide in a community with a mission to follow God’s guidance and serve others according to our unique gifts.

We emphasize our conscious dependence on the Holy Spirit.

At REchurch, regardless of your stance on various issues, you are welcomed with open arms. Our doors are open to anyone seeking a relationship with God and His Church. We believe that it’s God’s responsibility to transform hearts, not ours. Our role is simply to preach and teach Biblical truth and to love people in the name of Jesus, irrespective of their views on worldly matters.

What denomination is REchurch?

REchurch has made a conscious choice to be non-denominational. In a world filled with distractions, denominational divides and governance issues often divert churches from their true mission: to love God and love people. By embracing independence, we aim to worship, operate, and engage in bold Kingdom initiatives freely.

How does REchurch do baptisms?

We understand that baptism practices vary among different traditions—whether immersion or sprinkling, infant or adult. Our pastoral team is available to discuss baptism with you, and please know that we fully respect your baptism preferences.

How does REchurch perform communion?

We practice open communion. You’re welcome to participate regardless of church membership. The only requirement is that you’re a follower of Jesus, acknowledging Him as your Lord and Savior. Children are free to receive communion if their parents have ensured that they understand the symbolism and significance of communion.

What is REchurch’s stance on marriage and sexuality?

We affirm the incredible and distinct creation of men and women by God, designed to complement each other. Christian marriage, in our belief, is a covenant between one man and one woman, and we regard sex as a sacred gift from God to be enjoyed within the bounds of marriage.

Where does REchurch stand on human life issues?

We hold that every life is valuable to God. From conception to natural death, we cherish and respect all human life, echoing God’s own reverence for it.

Does REchurch allow women in ministry?

While acknowledging the unique differences between men and women, we affirm the extraordinary roles that women have played throughout biblical history, including leadership positions within churches and as the first messengers of Jesus’ resurrection. For these reasons, we embrace and empower women in all leadership roles at rechurch.
