church of Christ at Altoona

"Following the New Testament Pattern"

WHO ARE WE?

Allow us to introduce ourselves, we are the church of Christ at Altoona. We have chosen this name because we are patterning ourselves after the early church and this is one designation for the church. Rom 16:16...All the churches of Christ greet you. We are Christians...nothing more, nothing less.  We are located in the heart of central Pennsylvania.

WHERE DO WE MEET?

God’s word teaches us that the church built by Jesus is a spiritual house. Not a “physical building”, but rather a house made up of living stones…1 Peter 2:5 you also, as living stones, are being built up as a spiritual house1 Cor 3:9...for we are God's fellow workers; you are God's field, God's building. We happen to meet Sunday evenings at 6:00 in the Giant Eagle Community Room in Altoona's Logan Town Center, but the church could meet anywhere. They often met in one another’s homes. Philemon 2… to Apphia our sister, and to Archippus our fellow soldier, and to the church in your house: In John 4:20-24 a Samaritan woman asked Jesus, "Our fathers worshiped in this mountain, and you people say that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship." Jesus said to her, "Woman, believe Me, an hour is coming when neither in this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father. ….. But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth."
