Denomination: Church of the Brethren
The Staunton Church of the Brethren has to be the most hospitable, friendly church I have ever attended. These people know how to make you feel comfortable, and it’s genuine. They clearly live out the faith that's in them. That’s one of the things that attracted me to the congregation as pastor, and I’m sure it’s one of the things that you'll remember when you visit us. You’ll want to come, again and again, as you get to know people and share the way of Christ with us. When people ask me to tell them more about the Church of the Brethren, my response is that you need to just come and spend some time with us.
Our Beliefs
“For the glory of God and my neighbors’ good” was a motto of the early Brethren. The Church of the Brethren traces its roots back over 300 years to eighteenth century Europe. The early Brethren shared many beliefs with other Protestants, but focused on peaceful action, plain and compassionate living, and a shared search for truth. Still today, we turn toward God in devotion and toward our neighbors in service. Learn more about our beliefs through the Church of the Brethren welcome site.
