“As you encounter people this week, realize that they are like geodes – rough individuals forged by heat and pressure with a beauty all their own deep down inside – and see if that doesn’t make you want to spend the time and energy to discover what’s hidden inside. ” click here to read more...

Dear Friends,

Garland St. Church of Christ began worshipping at the current location in February 1966 after moving from the 10^th and Utica location. Our mission statement as a family of Garland St. Church of Christ, with the Bible as our guide and Jesus Christ as our Savior, will look Upward to glorify, praise and honor God. We will look outward to seek, convert and reach the lost. We will look inward to serve, equip and love one another. Our vision statement is to train and help our members for various works inside and outside our services. We want to be recognized in the community as a Church that reaches out to people inside and outside our membership allowing everyone to serve in a meaningful way.

Please use this website to see who we are, where we are, and where we are going. Ours is a great story, and we welcome you to become part of it. We seek to encourage your relationship with Jesus Christ and we challenge you to get connected in ministry with us as we pursue our mission: Go! Make disciples and teach them to obey the commands of Christ!

We certainly want to extend a special invitation to visit us. Our goal is to “restore” the New Testament Church in our time. We strive and want to be a Bible centered Church.

May God alone be honored through the life and ministry of this, His Church.

In Christ,

Garland Street Church Of Christ
700 Garland St.
Plainview, Texas 79072

The Search Light Programs April 2012 on cable channel 8 at 7:30 a.m. • April 15-THE RESURRECTION. What is the resurrection and when will we be raised? How will the resurrection affect me personally? What kind of body will we have in the resurrection? In this less, we’ll explore what the Bible says about resurrection.

April 22-THE JUDGMENT. Since each of us will one day face judgment, we need to know Who will judge us, what the basis of that judgment will be, and how we can prepare for the Judgment Day. Will you be ready for that day?
