Who we are
At Friends Church, you matter to us, because you matter to Jesus. All that we do is designed to meet people’s needs right where they are. Whether you are just starting to investigate the claims of Christ, or already enjoy a personal relationship with God, we have something for you. Let’s share our journeys together!
At Friends Church, you will find straight answers about God, life, family, career and relationships right from the Bible. Our 10AM Sunday Worship Service has a blend of classic and modern worship music. Our people are warm and friendly. We seek to connect people with God each week through an inspiring, reflective and relevant service. However, we are not only a Sunday Church, we desire to live our faith daily and provide all kinds of avenues to do that. You will find Friends Church to be a place where you can grow in your relationship with God no matter what age you are.
Where we came from
Friends Church was the first Protestant church in Citrus Heights. We have connected people to Christ, served families, helped start new churches and sent missionaries all over the world since our founding over 100 years ago. We may not be the largest church in the area, but we seek to make a large impact in our community and world.
We are part of Friends Church Southwest (FSW) which is a network of churches filled with people who believe that we are better together than we are by ourselves. Our vision statement is: Fueling a Spirit-led movement where Jesus changes people who change the world!
Where we're headed
At Friends, we help people to Know God, Find Freedom, Discover their Purpose, and Make a Difference. As a church our vision is to be Life Changing, Community Impacting, and God Glorifying that results in more and better disciples who change the world.
We do this through our Sunday Worship Gatherings, our Life Groups, our Discipleship pathway & Training, our ministries and our outreach to our communities and our world.
