About UsApostolic Faith Church was born out of the vision of
Bishop William Sechrist. The image to the left is a page out of the 1980 Pennsylvania District Home Missions calendar. Bishop Sechrist was the Home Missions Director and adopted Chambersburg as a city to plant a future church. In the spring of 1995, Pastor Phillip Zook, his family began holding regular services at the Letterkenny Army Depot Chapel. In May 1996, Pastor Zook became the Pastor and Church Planter of Apostolic Faith Church. We are thankful for those who were "part of the start." Some of those families are still with us today. Join us as The Church in Chambersburg continues to grow! |
What We Believe |
We believe in Bible Salvation in the only saving Name of the Lord Jesus Christ. We affirm the Book of Acts message of Salvation that was preached by the Apostle Peter on the Day of Pentecost.
"Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ, for the remission of sins, and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost." (Acts 2:38) We believe in divine healing in the Name of Jesus Christ. We follow the practices of the Book of Acts Church by anointing with oil and the laying on of hands. We have seen many miracles by the power in the Name of Jesus Christ. We are affiliated with the United Pentecostal Church International |
What To Expect |
When you come to Apostolic Faith Church, you can expect most of all to feel the presence of the Lord! Our goal is to enter into His gates with thanksgiving and into His courts with praise. We are proud to be Pentecostal in our preaching and also in our worship. You will enjoy a mix of old-time hymns and modern worship songs that are balanced to usher us into a time of worship. We clap our hands, lift our hands, worship God and yes, we speak in tongues as the Spirit of God moves. You may even see people get a little demonstrative in their worship. What you will not find is judgement, condemnation or prejudice. Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty!
