First Church Of Christ

Heritage Assembly is a Classical Pentecostal church that has served Des Moines for 50 years. In recent years the church existed in two separate assemblies - Calvary and Central. These churches merged under the leadership of pastor Jeff Bradley in 2007. We are traditional in Message and Worship, and in Method we are continually changing to reach our generation with the gospel. Though Heritage is young in it's new name the ministry has continued for years as a light in the greater Des Moines area. Pastor James A. Snow along with his precious wife and six children and counting have joined the ministry in 2008 to continue to preach the cross, and reach the lost.

Changing Lives in the Name of Jesus Christ Our Vision is . . . Changing lives in the name of Jesus Christ. Our Mission is... To create a welcoming atmosphere To invite others to join our faith journey To involve all in worship, service, mission, small group participation, tithing and prayer To connect our faith in Jesus with our daily lives God loves us. Not because of who we are or because of what we've done. He loves us . . . just because. He sent His perfect son, Jesus, to die on the cross for our sins. Not because we deserve this gift from Him. Yet He loves us . . . just because. Remember these words: "Jesus loves me this I know for the Bible tells me so." Two key Bible verses help to summarize the foundation of what we believe. “For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not perish but may have eternal life.” John 3:16 “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God—not the result of works, so that no one may boast” Ephesians 2:8-9 John Wesley, the founder of the Methodist movement, spent significant time in worship, hearing and studying Scripture, Holy Communion, prayer, and fasting. These practices continue to help us to stay connected with our Lord and Savior today just as they assisted Wesley to grow in his faith. Our congregation was established in 1892 and now has nearly 1,800 members. Worship Times Saturday 5 p.m. Sunday 8:30 a.m. and 11:10 a.m. Sunday School: 10 a.m.
