ourpast
Creekside began as a bible study group - comprised of nine adults and two kids - in 2003 and progressed into church planning later the same year. They met in the Rose Emporium, which is just adjacent to where the church sits now.
Just a short time later the church had its soft launch in Spring, 2004 and then a grand opening in August of the same year - which is when we celebrate our official 'birthday'.
Our first building was move-in ready by Easter of 2006, and is used currently as our children's facility. Construction began on our current worship facility in August, 2008 and was completed in May of 2009.

In 20 years, our nine worshippers turned into 900, of which an average of 460 'real-life, everyday people' worship weekly. Only half of our church size is the national average for church attendance - a staggering statistic, isn't it?!
Creekside's staff and the real-life, everyday people who attend to worship are part of a community. A community in which we aim to support as often as possible. In 2017, we served as a hurricane Harvey relief location, taking in countless families who were impacted in some form by the weather. Our volunteers put in countless hours to ensure we could make what was likely one of the worst moments some people's lives, to one where they could feel safe and know they were loved.
We are consistently upgrading our facilities so we can continue to offer relief to our communities during disasters of any magnitude in the future. Together we experience hardships, and together we get through them.
ourfuture
With God's direction, we plan to grow! We have plans to build a family recreation center, to include two gym floors, and indoor batting cage, and numerous other family benefits.
As our community grows we endeavor to grow with it. We're planning for a future worship center, agriculture center, sports fields, larger area for our partners, as well as a lodge style facility to host single mothers in transition.
While our plan is to adapt and grow as our community grows and as God directs us, our values as a community of Christ will never change. We encourage everyone to be a witness to the amazing things God has in store for us. Our family is your family!

Creekside is consistently growing to improve our operations and to provide for our local communities. We already have plans in the works for new facilities and upgrades to our current ones. To learn more about future construction and upgrades, and to follow along, click HERE.
