Faithful Congregations Devoted to Worship and Fellowship
Christ-Centered Congregations
We are honored to welcome you to the online home of the South Central States Mission Center, a part of the Community of Christ church. Our mission center is a vibrant and diverse community of 30 congregations located in Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri, and Oklahoma. Whether searching for a community, looking to deepen your connection with God, or seeking resources for leadership within our Christ-centered congregations, we are here for you.
Who We Are
As a mission center, we are dedicated to promoting a Christ-like way of life that reflects love, peace, and unity. Our goal is to connect individuals and families with local congregations and to provide a place where all are welcome at the table.
Our website serves three main purposes:
- Helping individuals learn about the Community of Christ, our beliefs, and our mission.
- Assisting congregation leaders with resources for camps, retreats, and mission center events.
- Sharing our inspiring Sunday night service via live streams on YouTube and Facebook, with an archive of past services for anyone to watch.
We believe in fostering a faith community that empowers all to embrace Christ’s teachings and share His love and peace in the world.
