Mission Statement
A Congregation Committed to making Disciples
Through Evangelism and Nurturing.
Wildewood Christian Church is one of over 5,000 churches organized to pattern all things after the church found in the New Testament
Scriptures. We are an undenominational congregation with no creed but Christ and no book save the Sacred Word. We are seeking to unite Christian Faith upon the sole basis of the Divine Scriptures, given by God, and
Divine Name, given by God.
We at Wildewood encourage you to take the accent from the names that divide and place it upon the name that unites - Christian. We encourage you to take the emphasis from the
documents made by man and place it upon the only Book that saves and unites - The Holy Bible.
Wildewood Christian Church is known for its warm, friendly spirit and its Bible preaching. Wildewood affords
excellent teachers and Bible School classes for every member of your family. You are invited to visit with us at any time. You are invited by the Lord to become a Christian and thus become a part of the wonderful
family of God.
Please E-mail our Office Manager if you have any comments or questions about this web site. We sincerely hope that you enjoyed visiting Wildewood Christian Church via the World Wide Web
and pray that you and your family will someday visit us personally for a day of worship. May Our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ be with you always and forever. AMEN!!!!
The objective of our existence is:
- TO RESTORE Biblical Christianity and the consequent union of all followers of Christ in one body.
- TO EXALT Christ above party and His Word above human creeds.
- TO BUILD a church of Christ without denominational name, man-written creed, or other barriers to Christian unity, whose terms of fellowship
shall be as broad as the conditions of salvation and identical with them.
- TO LEAD individuals to Christ in the clear light of the New Testament teaching.
Thus we teach and plead for:

Mark 1:5-10
5 The whole Judean countryside and all the people of Jerusalem went out to him. Confessing their
sins, they were baptized by him in the Jordan River. 6 John wore clothing made of camel's hair,
with a leather belt around his waist, and he ate locusts and wild honey. 7 And this was his message: "After me will come one more powerful than I, the thongs of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and untie. 8 I baptize you within water, but he will baptize you with the Holy
Spirit."
9 At that time Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan. 10 As
Jesus was coming up out of the water, he saw heaven being torn open and the Spirit descending on him like a dove.

Acts 8:26-40
26 Now an angel of the Lord said to Philip, "Go south to the road--the desert road--that goes down
from Jerusalem to Gaza." 27 So he started out, and on his way he met an Ethiopian eunuch, an
important official in charge of all the treasury of Candace, queen of the Ethiopians. This man had gone to Jerusalem to worship, 28 and on his way home was sitting in his chariot reading the book of Isaiah the prophet. 29 The Spirit told Philip, "Go to that chariot and stay near it."
30 Then Philip ran up to the chariot and heard the man reading Isaiah the prophet. "Do you
understand what you are reading?" Philip asked.
31 "How can I," he said, "unless someone explains it to me?" So he invited Philip to come up and
sit with him.
32 The eunuch was reading this passage of Scripture:
"He was led like a sheep to the slaughter, and as a lamb before the shearer is silent, so he did not open his mouth.
33 In his humiliation he was deprived of justice. Who can speak of his descendants? For his life
was taken from the earth."
34 The eunuch asked Philip, "Tell me, please, who is the prophet talking about, himself or
someone else?" 35 Then Philip began with that very passage of Scripture and told him the good
news about Jesus.
36 As they traveled along the road, they came to some water and the eunuch said, "Look, here is
water. Why shouldn't I be baptized?" 38 And he gave orders to stop the chariot. Then both Philip
and the eunuch went down into the water and Philip baptized him. 39 When they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord suddenly took Philip away, and the eunuch did not see him again, but went on his way rejoicing. 40 Philip, however, appeared at Azotus and traveled about,
preaching the gospel in all the towns until he reached Caesarea.

32 Then they spoke the word of the Lord to him and to all the others in his house. 33 At that hour of
the night the jailer took them and washed their wounds; then immediately he and all his family were baptized. 34 The jailer brought them into his house and set a meal before them; he was filled
with joy because he had come to believe in God--he and his whole family.

Romans 6:1-6
1 What shall we say, then? Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase? 2 By no means!
We died to sin; how can we live in it any longer? 3 Or don't you know that all of us who were
baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? 4 We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory
of the Father, we too may live a new life.
5 If we have been united with him like this in his death, we will certainly also be united with him in
his resurrection. 6 For we know that our old self was crucified with him so that the body of sin
might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves to sin--

Hebrews 12:1, 2
1 Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off
everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. 2 Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for
the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
