Our Humble Beginnings
Homestead Church in Penn Hills, Pennsylvania is the continuation of the vision of Rev. H.G. McClure, Senior Pastor of Homestead Missionary Baptist Church located in Los Angeles, CA in 1954. The church was established to meet the spiritual needs of the folks living in Southcentral Los Angeles.
In an ever-changing world, Homestead Church of Pittsburgh, as well as the Legacy of Homestead Missionary Baptist Church of Los Angeles, are the voices that echo Christ. We believe that the presence of Christ is important in the lives of all people, and we want people to see how His love transcends and plays a vital role in our family and culture.
A Movement With a Purpose
Our Mission
We believe that our purpose as a church is not just to gather together on Sundays, but to actively engage in serving others and spreading the love and message of Jesus Christ.
At Homestead Church, we understand that worship is not confined to the walls of a physical building. In this digital age, we have embraced the opportunity to create a virtual church ministry that allows us to reach people from all walks of life, regardless of their geographical location. Whether you’re in Pittsburgh or anywhere else in the world, we invite you to join us in worship and be a part of our community.
Our beliefs are centered around dedicating our lives to serve Christ through others. We believe that true worship is not just about singing praises and attending church services, but about actively living out our faith and serving those in need. We strive to be a church that is not inward-focused, but outward-focused, constantly seeking ways to make a positive impact in our community and beyond.
Homestead Church is more than just a place to attend on Sundays. We are a movement with a purpose. Our mission is to equip and mobilize individuals to go out into the world and make a difference. We believe that each and every person has unique gifts and talents that can be used to serve others and bring about positive change. Through our various ministries and outreach programs, we provide opportunities for individuals to discover and utilize their gifts in service to others.
In addition to our commitment to serving others, we are also dedicated to fostering a strong sense of community and fellowship within our church family. Despite being a virtual church, we strive to create an environment where individuals can connect, support, and encourage one another. Through online small groups, prayer meetings, and virtual events, we provide opportunities for individuals to build meaningful relationships and grow in their faith together.
Joining Homestead Church is not just about attending a virtual service; it is about becoming part of a vibrant and active community of believers who are passionate about making a difference in the world. We invite you to worship with us, to grow with us, and to join us in our mission to transform the world for Christ.
Whether you are a long-time churchgoer or someone who is exploring their faith for the first time, we welcome you with open arms. At Homestead Church, it doesn’t matter where you come from or what your background is – what matters is that you have a desire to serve Christ through others. We believe that together, we can make a powerful impact and bring about positive change in our world.
So, if you are looking for a church that goes beyond Sunday services and is dedicated to serving others, if you are looking for a community of believers who are passionate about making a difference, we invite you to worship with Homestead Church. Join us on this incredible journey of faith, service, and transformation. Together, let’s be a movement with a purpose.
