IN JUNE OF 2018, OUR LEAD PASTORS, STEVE AND TONI MCCLEARY, WERE SENT FROM THE CURE CHURCH IN KANSAS CITY, KS, TO LAWRENCE, KS, TO LAUNCH OUR CHURCH. THEY HOLD A DEEP SENSE OF HONOR AND APPRECIATION FOR THEIR PASTORS, KELLY AND ESTHER LOHRKE, WHO HAVE SERVED AS LEAD PASTORS IN KANSAS CITY FOR OVER 30 YEARS.
WE BEGAN OUR JOURNEY AT THE TRAIN DEPOT ON THE NORTH SIDE OF TOWN, BUT THROUGH PRAYER AND CLEAR GUIDANCE FROM THE LORD, WE MOVED TO THE EAST SIDE OF LAWRENCE IN 2019.
SINCE THEN, OUR CHURCH HAS TRANSFORMED FROM A SMALL PLANT INTO A FAMILY OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE DISCOVERED THAT JESUS IS THE CURE FOR OUR LIVES AND FOR THIS WORLD.
WE HAVE WITNESSED MIRACLES THAT DEFY EXPLANATION, RESTORED MARRIAGES, BROKEN ADDICTIONS, SOFTENED HARD HEARTS, AND LIFE-CHANGING TRANSFORMATIONS.
OUR FOCUS IS ON BUILDING THE KINGDOM OF GOD HERE IN LAWRENCE, NOT ONLY GROWING NUMERICALLY AS A CHURCH BUT ALSO DEVELOPING INDIVIDUALLY AS DISCIPLES OF JESUS. WE STRIVE TO SPREAD THE LOVE OF GOD AND IMPACT EVERY HEART IN THIS COMMUNITY.
JUST AS OUR PASTORS WERE SENT FROM OUR SENDING CHURCH IN KANSAS CITY, WE ARE DEDICATED TO BECOMING A CHURCH THAT PLANTS OTHER CHURCHES AND SERVES AS A PLACE WHERE GOD CAN WORK THROUGH ALL OF US FOR THE CALLING HE HAS PLACED UPON OUR LIVES.
