We, the members of the Church of Christ at Martinez, CA., are a family of God's children, saved by the grace of God and committed to serving our Lord and our fellow man. We are people of all ages and from many walks of life who have been called into a united fellowship of love and acceptance. We rejoice in the precious gifts the Lord has given us, and we are eager to share those gifts and blessings with you. If you reside in this area, please know that there is a special place for you and your family in this church family.

Churches of Christ are independent, non-denominational congregations of baptized believers in Jesus. There are approximately 13,000 such congregations in the United States and another 13,000 or so in over 100 countries around the world. These churches are united not by human doctrines or organizations, but by these simple shared beliefs:

• Jesus is God's Son, the only Lord and Savior of the human race.
• The Bible is the very Word of God and the only foundation of our faith and the only reliable guide for our lives.

We do not accept human creeds or dogmas, as these serve only to divide believers and label them with denominational names. We wear only the name of Jesus Christ. We are simply Christians. No, we are not a perfect church or perfect people, to be sure. We are flawed people who cling to the truth and share His grace. We rejoice in the precious gifts and blessings the Lord has given us, and we are eager to share the with you.

Enrichment in Christ

We offer an array of activities and service aimed at helping people to know Christ and to grow in Christ. Helping Hands Christian Preschool serves the children of our church and community. We are involved in Sierra Bible Camp, sponsoring a week-long session of camp for ages 9 - 17. We offer children's programs such as Vacation Bible School and Leadership Training for Christ to boost the faith of our children.

Our teens are a vital force in the church and are involved in various activities of service, study and fellowship. Our annual youth rally attracts several hundred junior high and high school students from all over the state. Our older teens and college age members have formed a group for fellowship and Bible study. Our busy seniors are anything but retired! They are active and productive in many areas of the work of the church and serves as a beautiful example to the younger believers.
