About the Church:
Chapel in the Pines is a non-denominational church, nestled in the beautiful small town of Twain Harte, California – located in the Sierra foothills. The multigenerational congregation displays a great spectrum of young families to senior adults. Engaging Bible teaching, authentic vibrant worship, and strong community have been core values of this charismatic congregation. The people of Chapel in the Pines come from a variety of denominational backgrounds and Christian experiences, but tend to lean toward the more charismatic side of things. There is a strong tradition of church involvement among the laity at Chapel in the Pines and congregational involvement is higher than the average church, with willing servants who love to see God at work.
Financially, the church is in good standing with funds to invest in new ministry efforts. While in the past, the church has swelled in some seasons of ministry to several hundreds, Chapel in the Pines has experienced some decline in the last couple years. Current Sunday attendance runs about 140 and is growing.
A new Lead Pastor began his tenure in June, 2022, and now we are looking to fill our next key role with an Associate Pastor who would invest about half of his or her time leading our Worship Ministry, and the other half helping to pastor the church in ways that are a fit for his or her interests, gifting, and abilities.
About Twain Harte:
Twain Harte is an amazing place to live and raise a family. It offers small-town quaintness, incredibly beautiful landscape and friendly people. There is plenty to do outside, from wonderful hiking in gorgeous evergreen forests, to swimming in one of our many mountain lakes, or skiing at Dodge Ridge in the winter. Yosemite, one of the jewels of the Sierras, is just a short drive away.
