What kind of People
What kind of people can you expect to find at the Putnam City Church of Christ? Pretty much like you would see with any group of people, as in any group.
You will find people of different ages, young and old, and of different race. People who are friendly, loving, caring with a benevolent desire as seen in our quilt ministry and Christian Service Center. People who make mistakes. You will find no perfect people, but you will find forgiven people. We were not brought together by any illusion of perfection or righteousness, we were brought together by our recognition that we are sinners in need of the cleansing blood of Jesus Christ.
We're a diverse group, coming from various backgrounds and professions, and at different stages of knowledge and spiritual growth in our walk with Christ. We are human beings on a journey striving together to serve God, our families, our community and the world. That's the reason we can worship together, stick together in good times and bad, and, with God's help, accomplish many things that make a difference in this community by reaching out to the lost and providing them an avenue of hope.
The people you will find at the Putnam City Church of Christ are people who love each other, love Jesus and love the Bible.
About Putnam City Church of ChristThe Putnam City Church of Christ first started meeting in the
fall of 1939 when members of the congregations at the 10th & Francis Church
of Christ and 12th & Drexel Church of Christ committed to the establishment
of the Lord’s work in the Putnam City community and surrounding area.
They started meeting at the Putnam City
school building and held their first gospel meeting outdoors in an
open-air tent on the school grounds and was conducted by F. William Mattox.
Later about 30 to 40 members began holding
services at 5820 Northwest 41st Street.
In 1943 the church purchased 199 feet of land west of their building
site and over the next two years four expansion programs were undertaken.
In 1960, the original property was sold and a new location
acquired that would provide more room for expansion and parking. 2.5 acres were purchased at the corner of
Northwest 42nd & Ann Arbor and the original property was sold to Jack Cherry
and Gene Adams in August 1962 for a funeral home called Gene Adams Funeral Home. Today it is now known as Guardian West.
The Church constructed a basement on the new property where they
worshiped until 1963 when the building was completed and an open house was held
December 1, 1963 where the church continues to reside to this day.
Our goal today, and the future, is to continue worshiping God as He has commanded and to
take the Gospel to others in this community and around the world as commanded in Mark 16:15. We welcome those who will commit with us in carrying out this great effort to all mankind.
