Haslett Community Church
History
One hundred charter members started our church in 1954. Three main pastors, Charles O. Erickson, Robert E. Frederick and Kurt A. Kirchoff (current), have served as spiritual leaders over the past 50 years. The physical facility has continued to expand—starting with the ground breaking in 1956 and continuing through the addition of new classroom and office space in 1996. In 2001, children’s church-school classrooms were renovated to facilitate adoption of the rotation model (http://www.rotation.org/), our Kingdom Makers Workshop.
Our church family consists of approximately 430 members with an average Sunday worship attendance of 160. Currently, 30-50 children and about 40 youth participate regularly in church-related activities, and the church family has about 145 children and youth in total. Our members represent a range of personalities and backgrounds with many involved in community affairs and concerned with social issues. During the year, members interact in many social activities such as softball, camping, and skiing. The church operates the Haslett Food Bank which has served an average of 575 families each year since 2001.
