 Latter-day Seekers Ministry

An introduction to Community of Christ for those with an LDS background. While we seek dialogue with all members of the Restoration, Community of Christ does not proselytize active Latter-day Saints.  In fact, we do not proselytize anyone in an effort to change their faith. We do, however, invite all who are seeking to come and see what God can do in their lives in Community of Christ. If you are a transitioning or former Latter-day Saint, we invite you to consider the Restoration anew.  Before you leave the Restoration, or faith altogether, please consider our offer of sanctuary.  We invite you to experience the peace and meaning that Community of Christ can bring to your life.

Emporia Community of Christ serves as the home of #EmporiaMinistry, a Latter-day Seeker Ministry serving East-central Kansas.  If you would like to confidentially discuss your faith crisis, faith transition, faith journey, or explore what Community of Christ has to offer;  please email Seventy Craig Hidy at Midlands Mission Center.

Project Zion Podcast

​Explores the unique spiritual and theological gifts the Restoration tradition offers today’s world. Project Zion publishes full-length episodes every Tuesday, with occasional “extra shots” of shorter, high impact content in between.

Project ZION Podcast is sponsored by the ​Latter-day Seeker Ministries team of Community of Christ. Latter-day Seeker Ministries supports those with a Mormon background who look to Community of Christ for sanctuary and potentially as a spiritual home. Our closed Facebook group offers a safe space for seekers to ask questions and connect.

Community of Christ proclaims Jesus Christ and promotes communities of joy, hope, love, and peace. We offer a community where you can belong, be valued and loved, deepen your spirituality, and discover a purpose that can change lives and communities. We are the welcoming, loving faith community that values the worth of every person as a child of God. We provide a safe space for you to explore and deepen your relationship with Jesus Christ and each other. Come discover renewed purpose for your life through compassionate, Christ-like service that ends suffering and fosters justice and peace.  Please contact us with questions, comments, or episode suggestions!
