Pastor and First Lady McKay

Immediately after Pastor and First Lady McKay completed their ministerial training with the Church of God, Pastor McKay received his first pastoral assignment- Power House Church of God in Bartow, Florida. It was there that God tested Pastor and First Lady McKay’s faithfulness and obedience.  

Immediately after Pastor and First Lady McKay completed their ministerial training with the Church of God, Pastor McKay received his first pastoral assignment- Power House Church of God in Bartow, Florida. It was there that God tested Pastor and First Lady McKay’s faithfulness and obedience.

Pastor McKay served God faithfully for seven years in Bartow. At the end of seven years, Pastor McKay realized that his work in Bartow was finished. After much prayer and fasting, the McKays were led to establish a church in the Riverview area.

The Holy Spirit placed in the McKays’ heart that the church they established had to be a true reflection of God’s Word and its member’s true followers of Jesus. In February 2004, the Holy Spirit gave the McKays the church’s name- Disciples of Christ Christian Fellowship (DOCCF) and its vision, “Making Disciples to Make a Difference.” On March 7 2004, Disciples of Christ Christian Fellowship held its first service.

In March of 2007, God gave DOCCF a logo fitting for the church. The logo depicts disciples being added to the Body of Christ and standing on the Word of God. The crucifix symbolizes the price that was paid for the remission of sins and the sun rising represents the Son of God rising from the dead.

Today, God continues to add to the church. DOCCF is a Word-based, Holy Spirit lead church; with a focus on evangelism and the vision, “Making Disciples to Make a Difference.”

DOCCF is constantly working to enrich the lives of our members and the community.  We host ongoing and special events throughout the year.  Learn more…

 

Vision:

A Christ-centered church where love abounds, God’s word is supreme, and people of all ethnicities are saved, free, discipled and equipped for ministry. 

Mission: 
Making disciples to make a difference.

“By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, by the love ye have one to another.”
John 13:35

We are a non-denominational word-based church focused on meeting the spiritual and emotional needs of families.

We encourage spiritual maturity through studying the Word of God, prayer and regular church attendance.

We provide life enriching programs and services to foster fruitful relationships with God, family, and friends.

We promote holy living and adherence to the great commission… “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded…”

Our vision is “Making disciples to make a difference”. We endeavor to disciple all kinds of people and train them in Christian knowledge for effective service.

Statement of Faith

We Believe:

  • In the verbal inspiration of the Bible.
  • In one God eternally existing in three persons; namely, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost
  • That Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of the Father, conceived of the Holy Ghost, and born of the Virgin Mary. That Jesus was crucified, buried, and raised from the dead. That He ascended to heaven and is today at the right hand of the Father as the Intercessor.
  • That all have sinned and come short of the glory of God and that repentance is commanded of God for all and necessary for forgiveness of sins.
  • That justification, regeneration, and the new birth are wrought by faith in the blood of Jesus Christ.
    In sanctification subsequent to the new birth, through faith in the blood of Christ; through the Word, and by the Holy Ghost.
    In speaking with other tongues as the Spirit gives utterance and that it is the initial evidence of the baptism of the Holy Ghost.
  • In water baptism by immersion, and all who repent should be baptized in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.
  • Divine healing is provided for all in the atonement.
  • In the Lord’s Supper and washing of the saint’s feet.
  • In the premillennial second coming of Jesus. First, to resurrect the righteous dead and to catch away the living saints to Him in the air. Second, to reign on the earth a thousand years.
  • In the bodily resurrection; eternal life for the righteous, and eternal punishment for the wicked.

Proverbs 4:7- Wisdom is the principal thing; Therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.

The term “minister” means servant, thus we are first humble servants. Our ministers are available to members and visitors, answering questions pertaining to God’s Word or church-related concerns. We desire that everyone develops a clear understanding of the Bible and how to rightly divide the Word of Truth.

Open and clear communication is key to operating in a manner that is pleasing to God; therefore, we ensure that all pertinent information from our Pastor is translated to all other departments and staff members. By using biblical wisdom, we are blessed to manage all departments in consistent orderly fashion, so that our Pastor may be given wholly and continually to prayer and the gospel.

We are blessed to be an integral part of a church that teaches and preaches the unadulterated Word of God, adding nothing in and taking nothing out.

God bless you and we hope to see you soon.

A soul without Christ, is like a ship without navigation; lost and headed for destruction! As believers, we must desire to seek out the lost and guide them to safety.
