The Casco Bay Church of Christ is a family of believers in the
Greater Portland area who are committed to following Jesus in the
21st Century. We believe that salvation is available only through
Jesus Christ and through faith in his grace. We believe that the
gospel of God's grace calls us to submit to Christ in repentance
and baptism and then to a life of loving God with all our hearts,
souls and minds, and loving our neighbors as ourselves. The Bible
is our standard, and we are making every effort to ensure that the
Scriptures are carefully, accurately and powerfully taught in our
various services and meetings. Those who attend our services are
often amazed to see the diversity represented in our fellowship
coming as we do from every possible social, economic, racial and
age group in our area. We are committed to spreading the message of
Christ around the world and we are particularly focused on planting
and growing churches in Europe. We are most intimately connected to
a family of churches generally known as the International Churches
of Christ with congregations throughout the world, but we recognize
that there are others outside this fellowship who are in the family
of God. We are a collection of saved sinners who are thankful for
God's grace and mercy, but who are learning more and more about the
life of devotion that his grace teaches us to live. We are
convinced that every aspect of life--marriage, family, friendships,
work and school--are all transformed by the message of Jesus. If
you are seeking a relationship with God, we hope you will get in
touch, so we might seek him together. We primarily meet on Sunday
mornings for our worship services and Wednesday night for a midweek
service. We hope to live out Acts 2:42-47 in our fellowship and
look forward that together we may live this out in the great state
of Maine. This passage in the NIV is titled ‘The Fellowship of
the Believers’ we hope this can represent our fellowship of
believers: “They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching
and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.
Everyone was filled with awe, and many wonders and miraculous signs
were done by the apostles. All the believers were together and had
everything in common. Selling their possessions and goods, they
gave to anyone as he had need. Every day they continued to meet
together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and
ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and
enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their
number daily those who were being saved.”
