About Us

THE FORT GIBSON

CHURCH OF CHRIST

           The church at Fort Gibson is a broad mix of ages.  We have lots of young working families along with a very active number of retirees.  

            Our worship services could best be described as “relaxed.”  Our members love to sing.  And we sing a real mix of contemporary and older songs.  The sermons are Bible-based and relevant to everyday life.  

            This church has very active prison and jail ministries.  We also sponsor a number of support groups. It’s okay to be a sinner here. We are an imperfect group of people serving a perfect Savior. Our goal is to help people transform their lives through their relationship with Jesus Christ.

            We have a very strong youth ministry.  We also have an excellent children’s education program.

            Our missions ministry reaches points all over the world.  We also sponsor short term mission efforts to Latin America to allow opportunity for anyone who desires to enjoy the chance to share their faith and make a difference in the kingdom.

            We hope you’ll come visit us at the Fort Gibson Church of Christ.

If there’s any way we can be of aid to you, just let us know.

Our History

We began as a mission trip for J.J. Trott of Tennessee in 1855-56 to Indian Territory, yet to be known as Oklahoma.  On July 27, 1905 these efforts began bearing fruit in what was called "The Big Meeting - Fort Gibson Indian Territory."  300 people attended this meeting on that Sunday night at Ross Grove to hear Elder Rose preach.
