Welcome to Richfield Christian Church
We are happy to have you visit our web site and will look forward to greeting you in our worship service. As a member congregation of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) we celebrated our 50th anniversary in 2005. We are a medium-sized, but growing congregation with a present membership of just over 200, and we have an average of 120 in worship. We have a very active Christian Women’s Fellowship (CWF) group; a part-time youth director for the junior high and high school; a part-time Children’s Ministry Leader for our younger children; Sunday school classes for children, youth, and adults. We have eight functional committees that are actively involved in ministry both within and outside the walls of the church. More than a church, we consider ourselves to be a family that is bound together in faith, hope and love for one another and the Christ we serve.
About Richfield
We are a non-profit corporation, a congregationally controlled religious body, chartered by the State of Texas on September 10, 1954. We are committed to the historic principles of the Disciples of Christ denomination. The purpose of this church, as revealed in the New Testament, is to win people to faith in Jesus Christ and commit them actively to the Church; to help them grow in the grace and knowledge of Jesus that they may increasingly know and do His will; and to work for the unity of all Christians, engaging with them in the common task of building the Kingdom of God.

Mission Statement
The following statement represents the work of the elders and the pastor to capture the essence of the mission of Richfield Christian Church. It was approved by the elders and by the board by a "sense of the meeting" without vote.
"As members of the body of Christ known as Richfield Christian Church, we believe that we are called to share the Good News that leads people to Jesus Christ; called to provide a place of worship, spiritual support and nurture to all who come; called to support the growth and development of outreach and mission at home and abroad; and called to help train and educate those persons chosen by God to service in ministry, both lay and ordained—so help us God."
