Rooted in faith,
growing in grace.
Our story, our beliefs, and the people who shepherd this community.
Our story
A small gathering with a big calling.
Aldermoor Fellowship began in 1998 when twelve families started meeting in a living room on Aldermoor Lane. They shared a simple conviction: church should feel like family, worship should be heartfelt, and faith should move into the neighborhood, not stay inside a building.
Twenty-eight years later, that living-room spirit still shapes everything we do. We gather every Sunday in our Main Sanctuary, share meals through the week, and serve alongside our neighbors across Springfield — tutoring kids, stocking food pantries, and showing up when it matters.
"They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer."
Acts 2:42
What we believe
Anchored in Scripture, led by grace.
- The Bible is God's living Word — our foundation for faith, teaching, and everyday decisions.
- Jesus Christ is the Son of God. Through His life, death, and resurrection, forgiveness and new life are freely offered to all.
- Grace alone. We are saved by grace through faith — never earned, always a gift, open to everyone.
- The Church is a family, not a building. We gather to worship, grow as disciples, and carry hope into our city.
- Love in action. Faith without works is incomplete, so we serve the hungry, the lonely, and the overlooked.
