There are some exciting changes at Casa de Cristo Evangelical Church in Phoenix. At our annual congregational meeting held May, 17, 2009, we agreed to appoint Rev. Adero Allison, Pastor Lisa Arias, Rev. Jim Simpson, and Rev. Charlotte Strayhorne as our Co-Pastors.

As we move into the bright future that God has promised us, we believe that having a full team approach to the Ministry of the Gospel at Casa de Cristo, which includes our LGBTQ community, will lead us to fulfilling our Ministry Mission and Vision.

Our Ministry Mission is: Building Bridges to Christ our Lord and Savior. And, we believe that by applying the team approach to the ministry and leadership of our church, we will be well equipped to meet our Ministry Vision: to Rescue the Perishing (based on the hymn by Fanny Crosby, 1869):

Rescue the perishing, Care for the dying. Snatch them in pity from sin and the grave; Plead with them earnestly, Plead with them gently; He will forgive if they only believe. Rescue the perishing, Duty demands it; Strength for thy labor the Lord will provide.

By vesting in the varied talents of our Co-Pastors, Casa de Cristo will be empowered to fine tune the focus of our ministry. Our Ministry Focus is twofold: Evangelistic - bringing souls to Christ; and Apostolic - equipping the saints for the work God has called them to.

Sunday morning worship service at 10:00 a.m. is led by each of our dynamic Co-Pastors. The music ministry is led by our energetic Praise & Worship team, Friends of God.

Our campus at 1029 E. Turney in Phoenix is busy each day as various groups from the surrounding community gather for meetings and events. Our outreach programs include: Genesis Counseling Center, home bible studies, youth groups, and annual festivals. Each day we look for new ways to build bridges to those who are seeking God's path.

As we move forward toward Zion we hope that you will take some time to visit and share in our ministry. Come witness what God is doing with us each day as we grow in our faith and in our ministry to God's people.

In Christ's service,
