We invite you to join us on this incredible journey and discover God’s amazing plan for your life!


What We Believe

We believe in one God who exists eternally as three: Father, Son and Holy Spirit (Deuteronomy 6:4; Matthew 28:19)

We believe that the Bible is God’s complete message to humanity and is the only authority for the faith and practical life of Christians (2 Timothy 3:16-17).

We believe that Jesus Christ is God’s Son, the only Savior of the world.  He was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, died on the cross to atone for our sins, raised bodily from the dead, now lives exalted at the right hand of the Father, and will return someday to earth (Acts 4:12; 1 Corinthians 15:3-8, 25-29, 51-57; Hebrews 4:15).

We believe that God loves every individual with a limitless love, but that everyone has sinned and become alienated from God (John 3:16; Romans 5:12).

We believe that people cannot earn their way back to God, but can only receive life with Him (eternal life) as a free gift. People accept the gift of eternal life by putting their trust in Christ, which includes believing in Him, repenting of sin and being baptized (immersion of believers) (Romans 3:19-28; Ephesians 2:1-10; Mark 16:16; Acts 2:38).

We believe that the Holy Spirit dwells in every Christian.  He demonstrates His presence by transforming the Christian into the moral and spiritual likeness of Jesus (Romans 8:9, 14; 2 Corinthians 3:18).

We believe the church to be the community of people united by their connection to Christ.  The Holy Spirit is building His church into a community fit for Heaven. (Ephesians 2:19-22).

Jeremy Allard - Senior Pastor
I love my job!  Over the past 19 years it has been a privilege to serve an amazing God and the wonderful Sheldon community.  My wife, Jennifer and my three kids (Emma, Henry, and Sarah) all are blessed to be a part of the family at Sheldon Church of Christ. Other than being a pastor, I enjoy fishing, camping, and fantasy football.

 
 

Carolynn Nelson - Office Administrator
I started as the Office Administrator in February of 2024. I’ve been involved with this church through the youth camp in the summer, and helping with the youth group on Sunday nights . I am so excited to see where God takes this beautiful church family! Both in and outside of church I love to sing, bullet journal, and make jewelry.

Michael Konsella - Children’s Director
I am very blessed to have lived in the Sheldon and Jump River area my whole life. I have an art education degree that I have been able to use in very different ways than I ever thought I would. I am a very passionate homeschool mom and am able to teach art at our local homeschool group. I have taught kids of all ages in the church for over 20 years.  My husband Chad and five kids (Roman, Makiah, Ayla, Chad Moses and Braelynn) are glad to be serving with the people at Sheldon Church of Christ.

 

Evan Dixon - Youth Director
Being brought on as the youth director has been a huge blessing in my life! I have been coming to this church since I was in kindergarten, for a total of 15 years. I love spending time playing board games, skiing with my family, and cooking up massive meals for those around me. I pray that God continues to bless wi the loving support of this congregation.
