Jesus Changes Everything

We exist to lead people to new life in Christ—to know, love, and live for Him.

SUNDAYS 9 AM & 10:30 AM • 332 CLOVERLEAF PLAZA, VAN BUREN

You belong here

Before you have it all figured out. Before you know everyone’s name. Before you’ve taken your next step. Welcome home.

Our prayer is simple: that you would know Christ more deeply, love Him more fully, live for Him more faithfully—and help someone else do the same.

OUR Path

KNOW • LOVE • LIVE

Know God. Know people. Pursue God personally through His Word, prayer, and worship—and know people not as faces in a crowd, but as people with stories and next steps.

Love God. Love people. As we know God more deeply, we love Him more fully—and love people with presence, compassion, forgiveness, and generosity.

Live for God. Live for others. What we know shapes what we love, and what we love shapes how we live—moving from attending to participating in God’s mission.

STEPS

Everyone has a next step.

Following Jesus is a journey. Whether it’s your first day or you’ve followed Him for years, God is always inviting you to take another step.

NEW LIFE — New life begins with Jesus. No one is too far gone.

BAPTISM — A public step of obedience that says, “I belong to Jesus.”

theTABLE — Get to know Merge—and let us get to know you.

SERVE — We serve because Jesus served us. The mission takes a team.

GROUPS — Move from rows into relationships. We weren’t created to follow Jesus alone.

Our Values

At Merge, we don’t simply want to attend church—we want to become the kind of people Jesus is forming us to be.

The Bible is our bedrock. God’s Word is our authority, our foundation, and our guide.

Christ is our priority. Jesus is the center of everything we are and everything we do.

People are our passion. Every person is made in God’s image and deeply loved by Him.

Growth is our choice. No one has arrived, and no one is too far behind to begin.

Service is our sacrifice. The mission takes a team, and it’s bigger than any one of us.

Generosity is our joy. We give because God has first been generous to us.

Mission before preference. We hold biblical truth tightly and methods loosely.

JOIN US THIS SUNDAY!

We always make room for one more.
