Garden City Church

Whitewater Church is like home. I can't think of a better place to gather and worship.

Whitewater church is an awesome place to be. It has been an amazing place to connect with wonderful people. Some who are searching for their faith and beliefs and others who are veterans in their faith journey. Without God and Whitewater, my life and my family's life would be drastically different today. This a wonderful community where you can belong before you believe.

Whitewater Church has been life changing for us. The community we have built here, and continue to build, is like family. People have cared for us during our seasons of greatest joy and seasons of greatest trial (like last year when our daughter was hospitalized for the first months of her life). This is what the church is all about! God’s love shines through his people and the leadership at Whitewater. Whether you are searching for a church to call “home” or you’ve never been to church, you will find love here. This church truly embodies their message of “belong before you believe.”

If this church disappeared would anyone in the community notice? There are so many needs in Pierce county and the people at Whitewater want to be a blessing. From middle school to youth center, foster care to seasonal celebrations we take loving our neighbor seriously. Not everyone is at the same place spiritually, but anyone can come and belong. My wife and I have been coming for a few years now and I am glad our family has such a great group to do life with.

My husband and I started attending here when I was going through one of the most stressful and difficult seasons of my life. This place is, without a doubt, home. The people are authentic, the worship is amazing, the teaching is honest, engaging, and theologically sound. Whitewater is engaged in the community and always looking for opportunities to bless others without pushing any sort of agenda. You will find a family here - people who will be honest with you, who will be there for you through anything, and who will encourage you towards Christ.
