New Covenant History and Mission On October 1, 1978, New Covenant Christian Church held its first worship service in the commons area of Putnam City North High School. Though small, this enthusiastic group of believers counted 41 members by December 31.1978. After meeting in the Putnam City North commons area for three years, the church moved across the wheat field to its current site. Since that time, the church has had four different building projects and has grown to over 700 members. Central to all our growth and activity is our commitment to a common mission: New Covenant Purpose Statement
New Covenant is a part of the “What Disciples Believe” Open Communion. The Lords’ Supper, or Communion, is celebrated in weekly worship and it is open to all who believe in Jesus Christ. The Oneness of the Church. All Christians are called to be on in Christ and to seek opportunities for common witness and service. Freedom of Belief. As Disciples, we are called together around two essentials of faith; a belief in Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior, and that Christians are free to follow their conscience guided by Bibles Study, the Holy Spirit and prayer. We are expected to extend that freedom to others. Baptism by Immersion. In baptism, the old self-centered life is set aside, washed away and a new life of trust in God begins. Although Disciples practice baptism by immersion, other baptism traditions are honored. The Ministry of Believers. Both ministers and lay persons lead in worship, service and spiritual growth. And above all that, Jesus Christ is the son of the Living God, who offers saving grace to all who seek it through His Son. We believe in the ministry of all believers. You will see men, women and youth serving in all phases of church life. Giving to support the church and its ministry is viewed as a Christian opportunity. www.disciples.org www.okdisciples.org
