Emporia Community of Christ
A Journey of Faith and Resilience
|
Emporia Community of Christ began its journey meeting in the welcoming spaces of group members' homes. These gatherings were filled with fellowship, worship, and a shared mission to serve the community. However, like many other communities around the world, our in-person activities came to a halt due to the challenges posed by COVID-19.

Embracing Digital Transformation
In the face of this setback, we have demonstrated resilience and adaptability by transitioning some of our activities to digital platforms. Through social media and our website, we continue to connect with our friends and community and share the teachings and values that bind us together. While we currently do not have a physical church facility in the Emporia, KS area, our digital presence has enabled us to maintain our sense of community and purpose.
