Bible-Believing
Led by our Pastor, we live by "every word which proceedeth out of the mouth of God"
The Bible is God's Inerrant Word. It is our Sole Authority in all matters Spiritual.
“All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness”
2 Timothy 3:16
Christ-Honoring
We honor our Saviour when we lift up HIs name as the Standard of our Salvation. When we, with His Holy Spirit, together fulfill His Commission to, "Go Ye Therefore"!
“.. all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father”
John 5:23
Independent-Baptist Church
We trace our beginnings back to John Baptist himself, and to the times of our Lord Jesus Christ. We are not affiliated with any Conventions, but are Governed Independently and Autonomously from Within, as were the Early Churches.
“And they continued stedfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.”
Acts 2:42
What We Are About
Shining Gospel Light Into A Dark And Cold World
“..they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined”
Isaiah 9:2
Thank you for your interest in Still Water Christian Fellowship. It would be our great joy to share with you what Jesus Christ can do for you.
Mission Statement — Acts 26:18
“...to open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.”
2026 Theme — Hosea 6:3
“Follow on to know the Lord.”
Jesus said, "whosoever doth not bear his cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple."
A Disciple is a Follower and a Learner. The True Follower yearns to Learn of Christ. Jesus urges His Church to Follow on to Know Him..
"Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls."

Children's Ministry & VBS
Ms. Carol serves as SWCF's Director of Children's Ministry and VBS. Children's Church and Sunday School meet Sunday mornings during our Worship Service. Vacation Bible School meets in August for a week of music, lessons, and Gospel teaching for community kids. Carol grew up in a Christian home and as a child attended a Bible-believing, missions-minded church. Carol asked Christ to be her Savior at age nine and grew in faith, sensing the call to teach children about Christ. Carol attended Philadelphia College of Bible. She has been a Bible teacher for forty years! Carol feels that it is crucial that children be influenced to stand strong for God in this culture. She Prays that this new generation will understand the good news of salvation and be truly committed to Him. In turn, she hopes that they will be equipped to spread the good news of Christ to others!
