Welcome

Welcome! We are a church devoted to loving God through worship, serving others in community, and growing in our faith as followers of Jesus.

We hope and pray God will encourage you to join us!

Fairfield Mountains Chapel is an interdenominational Christian church, meaning we include members from many different Christian churches and traditions. Over 40 years ago, the church initially united around common Christian beliefs, those stated in the traditional Apostles’ Creed, which still serves today as a common statement of faith for the congregation.

We encourage you to learn more about us through visiting the pages of this website and of course, worshipping with us on Sundays at 10 AM!

What We Believe

“Together loving God and serving others.”

These words sum up what we believe at Fairfield Mountains Chapel.

“Together” means we are not meant to live the Christian life alone, but in
community with other Christians. That’s why the Apostle Paul calls the church the
“Body of Christ” and speaks of how we are all connected to one another like a human
body has many parts.

“Loving God” is displayed in how we worship together. Our worship at Fairfield
Mountains Chapel is designed to glorify God, to encourage followers of Jesus Christ
and to give opportunities for all people to respond to God through faith in Jesus Christ.

“… and serving others” means we are designed by God to serve one another.
God created us, and equips us for service as Ephesians 2:10 says, “For we are God’s
handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in
advance for us to do.”

As an Interdenominational Church, Fairfield Mountains Chapel has adopted the
Apostles’ Creed as our basic statement of faith. The Creed is a summary of Christian
beliefs that dates back centuries and has been agreed upon as a Christian statement of
faith for many churches. We often say the creed in our worship services as an
affirmation of our faith and use the traditional Apostles’ Creed which states-

I believe in God the Father almighty, Maker of heaven and earth; and in Jesus
Christ, His only Son, our Lord; who was conceived by the Holy Ghost; born of the
virgin Mary; suffered under Pontius Pilate; was crucified, dead and buried. He
descended into hell. The third day He rose again from the dead; He ascended into
heaven; and sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from whence
He shall come to judge the quick and the dead. I believe in the Holy Ghost; the
holy catholic Church; the communion of saints; the forgiveness of sins; the
resurrection of the body; and the life everlasting.
