Our Vision

           Our vision is to be a beacon of unity and love within our community, where families gather regularly for enriching, faith-filled events, and where churches come together in corporate prayer and worship. We aspire to strengthen our ties with one another, support local initiatives like the Town Office playground, and provide for those in need through dedicated service to local food banks. Through these efforts, we seek to reflect God's love and foster a vibrant, connected community.

Our Journey

2013: We Began

          We moved 1500 miles to Maine with a steadfast dedication to reaching out to those who have never heard the gospel message.

2014: First  

          Connection Church began its journey on September 14th, 2014, in an unconventional yet fitting location: a bowling alley. This unique start symbolized the church's mission to connect with the community in relatable and accessible ways. We believed that the church should be more than just a building; it should be a place where people feel at home, regardless of the setting..

2017:Franklin Maine

        In our ongoing mission to serve and connect with communities, we moved to Franklin, Maine, where our church found a new home at the Vets Club. This location provided us with a welcoming space to gather, worship, and extend our outreach efforts. Once again showing that the church is more than just a building, but a family. 

2024: Present  day

           Connection Church now shares a space with United Methodist church, a testament to our shared commitment to serving the community despite differing beliefs. This collaboration exemplifies the power of unity and mutual respect in achieving common goals. By coming together, we leverage our collective strengths and resources to make a more significant impact, demonstrating that our differences do not hinder our mission but rather enrich our approach to outreach. Together, we strive to reach and uplift the community, fostering an environment of cooperation  and shared purpose. 

Our Futrue 

               Connection Church remains steadfast in its mission to build the kingdom of God, regardless of the building or place God leads us to. Our journey has shown that the true essence of our ministry lies not in physical locations but in our unwavering faith and commitment to spreading God's love. Whether in a bowling alley, a funeral home,a Vets Club, or shared space with another congregation, we are dedicated to serving, reaching the lost, and making a positive impact. We trust in God's guidance and are ready to follow wherever He directs us, knowing that our purpose transcends any particular venue  .
