About Us

We are a family of committed followers of Jesus

Our building is located in the Myerstown, PA, where we love, serve and support our community.

The Fireplace Christian Fellowship is a non-denominational church comprised of small groups of believers who are committed to being a spiritual family that does life together. The book House to House written by Larry Kreider, describes our foundational principles and their importance.

We fellowship together throughout the week in small groups, for Bible study, fellowship, and worship. We meet corporately on Sunday mornings for breakfast, worship and celebration.

Service to our local community is an essential part of our responsibility to share God’s love in a chaotic and often difficult world. To this end we commit ourselves to acts of service that extend from Myerstown to the outermost parts of the earth – consistent with the teaching of Jesus in Matthew 28:16-20.



Why is this church called The Fireplace?

John said, “I baptize you with water, but one more powerful than I will come, the strings of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire. He will clean his harvest floor, gather the wheat into the barn, but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.” Luke 3:16-17 NIV

As we build our relationship with Jesus, through prayer and study, and with one another through fellowship and service, we are committed to making and growing disciples. We take our mandate to reach the world with the love of God very seriously — and endeavor to do so: house to house, city to city, and nation to nation.

To enable us to fulfill our mission, we desire is that the Holy Spirit will expose and remove anything that would hinder us – being ever refined to more fully reflect the image of Jesus.

The Fireplace is accountable to Dove Christian Fellowship International, based in Lititz, PA. 

Our beliefs are consistent with Biblical Christianity as described in the Bible itself, the Lausanne Covenant, and also with the teaching of DCFI as described here

Note: Separate section.  Maybe light grey background color.  I’ve provided two images that you can use.  It will look similar to the “leadership section.”

Unshackled

All Ages – Thursday Evening

Join us as we grow more like our Creator through the study of His word and fellowship with one another.  As we dig deeper into scripture we are set free from sin, fears, beliefs, and thoughts that don’t come from Christ and are set free to become more like Him.

Groundwork To Growth

All Ages – Thursday Evening

Have you been walking with Jesus for a while and need to examine your foundation? G2G could be a good fit for you!

A mixture of couples and families, this cell is ideal for those currently or formerly in leadership roles in the church who are desiring renewal and re-invigoration for life with Jesus. We are seeking to strengthen those areas that need attention so we are prepared for new growth. (Hosea 10:12) We desire to see wounds healed and wholeness restored. (Psalm 34:17-19) This is accomplished by bi-weekly times of worship, study, prayer and coffee.

R.A.W. (Rise and Walk)

Adults Only – Monday Evening

Many of us have been beaten down, battered and bruised at one time or another in our lives. You are not alone. Whatever your reason, whether its addiction, abuse, depression, disease, or just the general junk in life, R.A.W. is a place where one can find hope and begin to heal.

It’s a safe place to come just as you are, no matter where you may be on your journey. None of us can do it all on our own. We need to be willing to reach out and allow others to help lift us up. Together we will pursue building a closer relationship with our Creator, with each other, and to know the hope that is in Jesus who brings healing, wholeness and purpose to our lives.

Jesus said to him, “Rise, take up your bed and walk.” (John 5:8)

Mountain Movers

Young Adults to Adults – Thursday Evening

“Have faith in God,” Jesus answered. “Truly I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and does not doubt in their heart but believes that what they say will happen, it will be done for them. Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.  (Mark 11:22-24) 

Our vision is to dig into God’s plan for healing and to understand what the Word teaches us about healing: What does the Word show us about when healing happens, how it happens, who it happens to, and how it all begins. We want to see able ministers who are willing to rise up and walk in obedience to pray for the sick and see them recover, knowing that God has given them the tools needed to pray with confidence.We want to develop a sensitivity to God’s voice and direction to pray as He leads. As we learn these things, our heart is to go outside our walls to minister to people who need to know Jesus love’, and receive His healing touch.

Young people to adults are welcome to join us as we discover God’s plan for healing.

Souls on Fire

All Ages – Saturday Morning

“Souls on Fire” small group was inspired by Third Day’s song, “Soul on Fire.”

Our group was birthed from a desire & passion to win more souls for the Kingdom. We aspire to learn and grow our own faith, with our hearts totally submitted to God and molded by His hands. We welcome any who desire to grow in relationship and expand the Kingdom through discipleship of the unsaved via the Holy Spirit’s leading.

(Psalms 34:1-5)
1. I will extol the Lord at all times; his praise will always be on my lips.
2. My soul will boast in the Lord; let the afflicted hear & rejoice.
3. Glorify the Lord with me; let us exalt his name together.
4. I sought the Lord, and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears.
5. Those who look to him are radiant; their faces are never covered with shame.

The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, and he who wins souls is wise. (Proverbs 11:30)
