Since 1955 the Willard Church of God has served the Willard area by sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ. Willard Church of God is a place you can call home. We are a body of believers that love Jesus and the local community. We are a church that is grounded in the Word of God and stand on his truth. 

Experience God

Did you know that you can have a relationship with your creator? The Bible is God's holy word. It is a guide for our daily lives and the greatest love story ever told. Romans 10:17 says that "Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God" and Psalms 119:105 says "Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path." God wants to have a personal relationship with you. He desires to give you hope and a future. Take the first step in your walk with God. He is waiting with arms stretched and He has a plan for your life. 

Connection

We offer a variety of outreach programs to engage people of all ages. We have a nursery, children's church, youth group, senior connect, fitness classes, bible studies, a food pantry, and various outreach events throughout the year. There is a place for you here!

Make a Difference

Willard Church of God's mission is to impact our community for Jesus Christ. There are many oppurtunties to serve the community through the food pantry and a variety of outreach events.
