Of the Christian and Missionary Alliance Athens Community Church (ACC) is a community of believers who are striving to love God, love others, to take the good news of the Gospel of Jesus Christ to everyone who hasn't heard, and to make disciples who make disciples. We invite you to join us on this journey. ACC is a "come
as you are" church. You don't have to get
dressed up on the outside or the inside to attend
here. Come as you are: broken, hurt,
wondering, looking for a body to belong, to
contribute, to experience the amazing journey of
relationship with Jesus Christ together with others
on the journey. Our goal is to fulfill Paul's heart when he wrote in Ephesians 4: "To equip his
people for works of service, so that the body of
Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in
the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and
become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the
fullness of Christ. Then we will no longer be
infants, tossed back and forth by the wave, and
blown here and there by every wind of teaching and
by the cunning and craftiness of people in their
deceitful scheming. Instead, speaking the
truth in love, we will grow to become in every
respect the mature body of him who is the head, that
is, Christ. From him the whole body, joined
and held together by every supporting ligament,
grows, and builds itself up in love, as each part
does its work." We strive to
help Christians mature in their faith and be
involved in effective service for Jesus Christ. Service
Times ACC holds
services Sunday morning at 9 and 10:45. Our services are
marked with contemporary worship, times of
testimony, prayer, the preaching and teaching of
God's Written Word, and practical application of the
biblical truths in our modern lives. The Coffee is
free and friendships are easy to make here!
Celebrate
Recovery is a Christian 12-Step program that brings
the hope and healing of Jesus Christ to anyone who
has hurts, habits, and hangups.
ACC's History Athens
Community Church (ACC) is a church plant of the
Central District of the Christian and Missionary
Alliance. Click here for more info on the
C&MA. ACC was started on Easter morning,
2004. We've experienced growth since
then and now we're currently meeting in two
rented buildings at 219 and 217 Columbus
Rd. Pastor
Jeff Schofield and his family moved to Athens
in 2003 and formed a team who initially
planted ACC before moving onto a different
position in 2009. Pastor Jim Bogoniewski
accepted the call to become the church's
second lead pastor in 2010. PJ served as
the youth pastor at the Rome Alliance church
in Rome NY for 9 years before accepting the
call in Athens. He and his family are
still getting settled, but are excited about
what God has for Athens Community Church down
the road! View Larger Map Contact Us You can contact the church office at 740-592-0060 or individual staff members here. We
