1 Congregational Profile for Waukee Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) T Avenue (One Mile West of Waukee on Highway 6) Waukee, Iowa (515)
2 Welcome from Waukee Christian Church We are a church that seeks to be a congregation of meaningful worship as we commit our members to mission in the name of Jesus Christ. Our mission statement states that we the congregation of Waukee Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), believe that God is the Creator and Sustainer of all things. We are people who seek to love God with all our heart, soul, and mind. We seek to reach out to others through our involvement in Worship, Christian Education, Outreach, Stewardship, and Evangelism. Waukee Christian Church has a long heritage in the Disciples of Christ denomination and the Waukee community. Some of the original founding fathers descendants are still members. Like any other church, we have seen membership ebb and flow, but there is always a core group that remains true to this church and its mission. Our members have supported many outreach projects over the years, both local and worldwide. For example, we have supported Operation Christmas Child by providing 225 boxes in 2010 and 169 in In recent years Vacation Bible School funded animals through Heifer International and mosquito nets for Mali. We support the Waukee Area Christian Food Pantry with a sustaining monetary pledge, food donations, and volunteer workers. We also support the Waukee Area Free Medical Clinic with volunteer workers. Realizing that most churches are friendly and inviting, we encourage people to engage themselves at Waukee Christian Church in child, youth, and adult ministries. We are warm and caring congregation with tremendous potential. We are located in a growing community minutes away from a major metropolitan area and has potential for growth. There are many opportunities to start new ministries and improve existing ones. We are looking for a pastor that will inspire us to answer the Christ s call and make this church come alive again.

4 Ministries and Programs The worship service at Waukee Christian Church is on Sunday morning at 10 a.m. The celebration service has both contemporary and traditional music. Each service contains a children s sermon, a Bible-based message, and the celebration of the Lord s Supper. Sunday school is offered during the school year for preschoolers through adults. Classes meet at 9 a.m. On the fourth Sunday of each month, the pastor and several Elders conduct a service for the residents of Legacy Point, a retirement community on the east side of Waukee. Services include a short sermon, singing hymns requested by the residents, and communion. Youth Groups A youth group for lower elementary children meets weekly during the school year and provides fellowship opportunities. Leaders are parent volunteers, assisted by the pastor. Typical activities include a Halloween party that includes a collection drive for UNICEF, Christmas caroling, field trips, and other fun activities. Women s Groups Our women s groups enjoy fellowship, study, and enrich the life of the congregation through special events and outreach. Christian Women s Fellowship (CWF) meets during the day and is attended primarily by the older women of the church. The WOW group meets monthly in the evenings and hosts several fellowship and fundraisers during the year. Fellowship Opportunities Most Sundays, coffee fellowship is held after the worship service. This intergenerational time provides the opportunity for people to get better acquainted and share with each other. Several special fellowship opportunities are held throughout the year by various groups in the church. We have a group of people who like to knit, crochet, or sew who meet on Tuesday mornings for fellowship. They make prayer shawls and baby hats and booties as an outreach project. Outreach Ministry Our congregation has an active Outreach Ministry.

Our Community Waukee is a rapidly developing community. It once was a small town located five miles west of West Des Moines, Iowa. It is quickly becoming a suburb of Des Moines, as development fills the five-mile corridor to the east, north, and south of town. Less than 20 years ago, Waukee s population was around 1,600. The 2010 census recorded 13, 790 residents. We have been listed in the nation s fastest growing cities and in one of the fastest growing counties in the nation for several years. The estimated Waukee medium house or condominium in 2009 was $199,119 while the state s medium house was $122,000. The agricultural heritage can be seen around town where corn and soybeans are still grown, but are quickly being replaced by streets and houses. Our proximity to Des Moines makes it an ideal location for those who enjoy small town living with city amenities close by. We have one of the best school districts in the state and we are also the fastest growing district in the state. We add a new building or remodel an existing building every other year to keep pace with our growing school district of 7,000+ students. Demographics Demographics of our community include: Waukee population in ,790 (increase by 169% since 2000) Dallas county population Greater Des Moines population 580,255 69,444 (53% urban, 47% rural, 88.2% Caucasian) 5 September 1, 2012
