Who We Are

Our Story | Our Leadership | What We Believe | Our Vision | Church Planting

Sanctuary is a diverse community of individuals who have abandoned the notion that life can and should be lived in isolation. We express ourselves uniquely and are united by our love for Jesus.

Sanctuary is not a ‘church’ the way our society defines it. Church is not someplace we “go.” Church is something we are—and we are a family with members of all ages and backgrounds. In this family there are musicians, military personnel, construction workers, stay-at-home moms, students, and professionals. We are a family that strongly believes that God loves people. Therefore, while we are a close-knit family, we are always interested in new family members who would be a part of a community where people seek to know and love God, live in fellowship with others, and transform the world by serving our city as we think Jesus would.

Sanctuary is also a member of the Acts 29 Network. Acts 29 is not a denomination, but rather a network of churches from many denominations who partner together to plant and replant more churches.
