On Sunday, Sept. 7, the Fishers location of Connection Pointe Christian Church will celebrate its grand reopening. After a soft launch, the church has been busy this summer providing activities and fellowship outreach within the community. With a long history in central Indiana dating back to 1837, church leadership is humbled and grateful to launch a second site in Hamilton County.
The Fishers location at 12625 Cumberland Road joins Avon, Brownsburg and Carmel in Connection Pointe Christian Church’s mission to connect people to Jesus and each other. Services are at 9:15 and 11 a.m.; children from newborns to fifth graders are welcome at both times, while the 11 a.m. service will accommodate middle school and high school students.
“We had been praying many years about Hamilton County,” said Denise McCleese, executive pastor of strategy and engagement. “As a multigenerational church, we feel God’s calling us to the suburbs, where schools and communities are focused on raising families. The next generation, our kids and students, are the centerpiece of our vision.”
Located at 126th Street and Cumberland Road, Connection Pointe leadership is excited that the church is now fully staffed, and renovations have been completed both inside and out. The warm and inviting environment is a place where people can experience life change and unconditional love.
The Fishers facility is an existing building previously known as Cumberland Road Church. Connection Pointe church leaders are thrilled to step into the opportunity God brought to them and continue the legacy Cumberland Road Church began by focusing on reaching more people with the love of Christ.
“There are three pillars to Connection Pointe’s vision,” McCleese said. “The first pillar of the vision is to maximize and multiply Jesus’ followers so they can grow in their faith and then help others experience the hope that Jesus brings. The second is to raise the strongest generation, our kids and students, to outdo us in changing the world for Jesus. The third is to amplify Jesus online and globally through digital tools that help people follow Jesus daily on their phones and in their life and support the church’s 26 full-time missionaries around the world.”
McCleese said God has given them an opportunity in Hamilton County, and it’s one the church does not take lightly. “We want to reach the lost, raise disciples to go into the community, follow Jesus and love our neighbor. We are super excited to be in Fishers, and we hope people in the community will check us out,” she said.
