Why Epiphany Camden?


The ruggedness of the inner-city makes it very easy for people to become isolated and disconnected. The Church not only proclaims the Gospel, it provides community, a welcoming people who embrace one another with the love of Christ. At Epiphany Fellowship of Camden there are several ways to begin to explore biblical community and to connect with others through, hanging out, lunches, and our various neighborhood gatherings.  However, our primary expressions are our weekly worship gathering, Discipleship Groups and Community Groups.

The fact is, Camden is in desperate need of a true gospel witness.  Through the Father’s eternal plan, the Son’s magnificent cross-work, and the Holy Spirit’s power, we aim to invade the darkness of the city with a full orbed gospel mission.  More importantly, the word of God compels us to move forward in this endeavor.  As the city of Camden now loses its entire police force, and under the influence of a violent and thug-driven culture, Camden has been darkened to the gospel in recent decades. We long to see the reality of the reign of Christ be realized in Camden.   Here we are Lord-Send us!

Our Desire
·       Lost young adults passionate about Christ
·       People in our target area walking to church
·       The Church of Jesus Christ regaining community credibility and impacting the overall Kingdom of Christ
·       Solid and Relevant Bible teaching being applied to the lives of disciples on a grass roots level
·       The lives of those impacted becoming Irresistible Influences where they live and dwell
  • Hitting the Streets and engaging the Culture
