About Us

The First Christian Church in Rifle was started in 1904. It is an Independent, New Testament Christian Church.

We attempt to follow the scripture in both teaching and practice. Jesus is our Lord and Savior!

There have been 21 pastors. Without their tremendous dedication, the church would have suffered. Some served many years.

The church could not mention all of the wonderful volunteers that have helped throughout the years. Without such ministers (servants) and ministries, the church, would not have survived.

Presently, we have a wonderful and dedicated family. We would love you to join us.

We Believe

“We believe in God the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth: We believe in Jesus Christ His only Son, Our Lord; Who was conceived of the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried; He descended into hades; the third day he rose from the dead; he ascended into heaven, and [sits] on the right hand of God, the Father Almighty; from thence he shall come to judge the quick (alive) and the dead.”

“We believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy [universal] church, the communion (fellowship) of the saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting.” -Apostle Creed (adapted)

We believe in the infallible Word of God.

Our Mission

 “The purpose this church shall be as reveal in the New Testament, to win people to faith in Jesus Christ and commit them actively to the church, to help them grow in the grace and knowledge of Christ that increasingly they may know and do the will, and to work for the unity of all Christians and with them engage in the common task of building the kingdom of God.

(See: Matthew 28:18-20; Galatians 6:1,2; John 17:11) —By-laws, Article I. B., 1904
