About Us

The story of our church begins not in Sedalia but in the Soviet Union. Many of our members faced persecution at the hands of Soviet society, and the oldest of our members remember seeing their loved ones imprisoned or even executed for the faith. Through those troubling times, many powerful testimonies were formed, and the foundations for unwavering faith were laid. With hope they moved to the United States, seeking a life better than the ones they left in the post-Soviet nations. Over time a community was built here in Sedalia, and our Word of Life Church was built.

For over 20 years our church has continually served and gathered. With the Word of God as our firm foundation, we have borne witness to His mighty works. Souls saved, hearts changed, and a community of believers nurtured. We profess the love of God that has been epitomized in our Lord Jesus Christ, who is the way, the truth, and the light. His Word continues to ring with power in our day, bringing freedom and salvation. It is a Word that transcends time, ever alive and active in the world - an everlasting Word of Life.

We strive to allow the work of God to continue in our Church and through our service to continue the ministry that Christ began here on Earth. Bearing the torch of faith first carried by the apostles, our mission is to nurture the warmth of the Bible in the hearts of believers and to shine the light of God’s Word into the lives of all. Through word, song, and action we aspire to fulfill this mission in our community and abroad. We invite you to join the greatest project in history - the Kingdom of God.
