Our Mission was given to us by Jesus in Matthew 28:19 - 20.
Our purpose at Callaway Christian Church is to win people to Christ and to equip them for Christian living and ministry beginning in the Fulton area and reaching around the world.
A Christian Church - Our message is that Jesus Christ is the Son of the living God. We require no other creed but this.
A Church of Christ - The church belongs to Him. We have no authority to change the teachings, rewrite the rules, offer altered membership requirements, or usurp His authority. In the strictest sense, the church is not a democracy in which the vote of the people can overrule the commands of the Lord.
A Non-Denominational, Independent Church - While we choose to associate with churches of like faith, we are not aligned with a specific governmental hierarchy or set of teachings. We do not seek division over teachings but rather unity with the Scriptures as our only rule of faith. Our organizational structure follows the example set forth in the New Testament. We select our own leaders, call and support our own ministers, decide where the mission money will go, and in every way determine the ministry of the church.
A Church Seeking Restoration - As much as possible, we are seeking to be like the New Testament church. That is why our baptism is by immersion, our communion is every Sunday, and our preaching is Christ centered.
