Who We Were
It was 1931. Times were hard on everyone in the depression. But two people came to Oxford, Florida with a message of hope and love. Their effort and faithfulness has been felt for generations.
A 1931 tent revival hosted by Luther and Nancy Miller began a legacy which continues today. Through evangelism we were formed together as a church. And it is with evangelism in the forefront of our efforts that we continue on. From our humble beginnings, this congregation has seen the Lord bless and expand our outstretched hands.
Who We Are
We are a community-driven, Spirit-filled church, affiliated with the Pen-Florida District Assemblies of God and the General Council of The Assemblies of God in Springfield, Missouri.
Community.
That word sometimes gets overused in different ministries, but this church truly is all about the community. Our slogan, The Family Church for the Family of God, isn't just something we say. There is always something going on around here. From Weight Watchers to Sports Camps, there is something for everyone! And there is plenty of room for you and your family! Won't you join us this Sunday?
