Who we believe we are dictates how we operate in life. We have a passion for connecting people to their identity in God, so we can explore the fullness of the life we have been created to experience. Knowing God is key to understanding our own identity and being comfortable in our own skin.
Family means that church is an extension of our heavenward home, a place where everyone is welcome wherever they're at in the journey of faith. Family is the place where we are encouraged to develop and grow in our faith in a safe environment, where community and communication are valued.
We are a church that is partnered with the values of the King and His kingdom, seeing His will being done on earth as it is in heaven. We believe as sons and daughters of God that giving expression to the kingdom we carry effects change in the world around us.
We value our Father's presence above all else and are committed to intimacy through the Word, prayer, worship, and encounter. Out of intimacy flows revelation and identity. Out of identity flows purpose and meaning.
Who We Are
Here in the heart of the Coachella Valley, Palm Desert Apostolic is a church where all are welcome and all things are possible through God. Whether you are new to faith or have walked with Him for years, we believe church should be a place designed to be enjoyed and not endured.
