We Were...Established in 1943 when the war clouds of WWII enveloped the nation, and Midwest City was springing to life in the shadow of the early Douglas Aircraft Manufacturing Plant (soon to become Tinker Air Force Base).

We Are...A Congregation of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) whose roots were planted in the 1800's on the American frontier by reform-minded Presbyterian clergy. Our pioneer founders include American-born Barton W. Stone and Scotch-Irish Thomas and Alexander Campbell.

We Believe...Like our pioneering founders, in the oneness of the Body of Christ. We gladly lift up what unites us with other Christians, i.e., our common faith and ministry in Jesus Christ.
    We believe that the church should be a community where "in essential matters there is unity; in opinions, liberty; and in all things, love."   
    We confess Jesus as the Christ, the Son of the Living God, and our Lord and Savior.
    We are a "People of the Book," looking to scripture to inspire and inform our faith and to set the standards for life and relationships with God, our neighbors, and the world.

We Practice...Baptism by immersion and observe the Lord's Supper each Lord's Day. Both sacraments are "open." Persons baptized in other Christian traditions are not required to be "re-baptized" by immersion for membership, and all followers of Jesus Christ are welcome to participate fully in our celebration of the Lord's Supper every Sunday. 

About The Chalice
The chalice symbolizes the central place of communion in worship for the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). The X-shaped cross of the disciple Andrew is a reminder of the ministry of each person and the importance of evangelism.

Mission
    The Mission of the First Christian Church of Midwest City shall be to glorify God, through the love of Jesus Christ,
by living faithfully as His disciples- seeking, teaching, and sharing God's word.
