On Saturday, February 1, 2003, Tommy and Julie Haines began a bible study in a vacant room at the Oklahoma Athletic Club with nine people attending. We have seen continual growth over the past 4 years, witnessed the salvation of hundreds and celebrated their baptisms. From stepping in faith to move into our own permanent place at the old Fun Skate building on Pennsylvania Avenue, to filling up gas tanks, giving out Thanksgiving meals (turkeys and all!) and raising school supplies, God has used us to further His kingdom in many ways. We have also shared in breaking racial prejudice by joining with another church to worship and teach God's word together, seeing God move in amazing ways on that morning.
Each week more people are becoming members of Real Church, joining in a mission toinvite people to an authentic faith in Christ, involve people in a community of genuine hope and integrate people into the ministry of showing real love.
Our heart has always been to love God and love people, and God continues to use us to accomplish that simple passion. We are amazed to see how God forwards His kingdom through us in North Oklahoma City. With all the great things He has already done, we are excited to see what He has in store for the future.
