WHERE IT ALL BEGAN:
180 Community Church's journey started with Jerimie Olvera's life-altering encounter with Jesus in September 2011. However, it wasn’t until Jerimie met Pastor Ron at Covenant Bible College and Seminary. They both shared a deep desire to start a community work that would allow people the opportunity to become fully devoted followers of Christ, the vision came to fruition in 2014 through Pastor Ron's prophetic insight & 180 Community Church was birthed. Despite challenges, including multiple relocations, the church's unwavering mission to reach the one, make disciples, and serve the community has remained steadfast. Through God's faithfulness, the church family has grown, united in their love for Christ and dedication to impacting lives and transforming communities.

At 180 Community Church, our vision is fueled by our core values, which we refer to as our “Drive 5”: love God, love people, serve, we are genuine, and we live generously. These core values are the guiding principles that shape who we are as a church.
Our mission is: Reaching the One, making disciples, and becoming Christ's family that serves our community. Inspired by Jesus' teachings, we believe in the transformative power of prayer, service and compassion. When we serve others, we serve Him, fulfilling His mission and call to reach every 'one' He places in our path.

As you step into your role within the body of Christ, you'll discover a sense of purpose and fulfillment like never before. Together, let's serve God and our community, hand in hand, as we live out our divine calling.
GOD
There is one eternally existing God who has three distinct persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. He is the creator of all that exists, both visible and invisible, and is therefore worthy of all glory and praise. God is perfect in love, power, holiness, goodness, knowledge, wisdom, justice, and mercy. He is unchangeable and therefore is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow.
REVELATION
God has revealed himself to us through his son, Jesus Christ, who is the visible image of the invisible God, the holy scriptures, and through all of creation itself.
MANKIND
Humans, both male and female, were created in God's image for His glory. The first humans, Adam and Eve, were created without sin and appointed as caretakers of the rest of God's creations.
THE FALL
When Adam and Eve chose not to obey God, they ceased to be what they were made to be and became distorted images of God. This caused them to fall out of fellowship with God, and fractured all of creation ever since that time.
SALVATION
Jesus Christ came to reconcile us with God. He lived a life without sin and willingly died on the cross to pay the penalty for our transgressions. God raised him from the dead and now, by grace, offers as a free gift eternal life to all who follow Christ, by faith, as their Lord and Savior. That is why salvation can be found in Christ alone.
THE CHURCH
The Church is meant to be the visible body of Christ, sent into the world to glorify God and proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ.
RESURRECTION
Jesus Christ is returning one day to judge both the living and the dead and to usher in the fullness of God's kingdom on earth.
