The mission of Core Community Church is to renew Omaha through a movement of the Gospel. We are not out to start a religious institution; we are on mission to see God renew all parts of our city through Jesus. We dream and work towards an Omaha that reflects the Kingdom of God in public and private realms, civic and business development, education and entertainment arenas, in all socioeconomic classes, and in each neighborhood. It is a huge vision - inspired by Psalm 96 - that can only be accomplished by the grace of God. Here is where we have started:
Renew The Church
Our church is supported by dozens of volunteers who make everything happen. The truth is that our church would not exist if it were not for these teams of people who serve faithfully.
Renew The City
One of the convictions of our church is that we are not just in our city, but we are for our city. We serve our city because we love Omaha, and we want to see God’s kingdom come to our city.
- Core's Mercy Team is a budding team coming together to strengthen partnerships with organizations in our city and continuing exploring more ways our church can serve Omaha.
- Core's Benevolence Ministry is in place to provide for real needs of those in our community. Through an application process and meeting with a deacon or pastor, we together discern if and how Core can serve your family in a time of financial crisis.
- InCommon Community Development exists to affront poverty through the cultivation of supportive community networks that participate in the holistic development of vulnerable populations and neighborhoods. In short, they transform communities through community.
