Welcome To Victory Faith Church
Victory Faith Church is a community whose purpose and the goal is to love God and people. We’re not experts. We’re far from perfect. Nobody looks the same, and yet everybody belongs. You’ll find a relaxed and friendly atmosphere each weekend at Victory Faith Church. Through the use of practical teaching and dynamic worship, we strive to present the message of Jesus in a clear and relevant way.
Why We Exist
Victory Faith Church exists to reach the unchurched and the de-churched to Know God, Find Freedom, Discover Purpose, and Make a Difference as fully devoted followers of Jesus.
You’re welcome here if you’re spiritually restless, discontent, new at discovering who God is, or a veteran of the faith. If you’re visiting for the first time: we won’t embarrass you, call you out, or ask you to give us money. We have an incredible team of people to help guide you and connect with you, but we realize that many people want to check out the church and “be anonymous,” and that’s fine with us! So come in and enjoy the relaxed atmosphere. Whether you’re spiritually restless, discontent, new at discovering who God is, or a veteran of the faith, you’re welcome here.
Where We Come From
Victory Faith Church began on Christmas Eve 1989 when Pastor Roger Welty and a small group of believers started gathering together. Through their leadership, Pastor Roger and Laurel Welty shaped Fort Madison until 2011. Pastor Dan and Michele Stewart then took the reins, leading with love and compassion and bringing nearly a decade of growth and stability. From 2020 until 2024, Pastors Kyle and Anna Sadler accepted the call to lead Victory Faith and embraced an exciting season of growth. Under their leadership, many found Jesus and discovered their God-given purpose. Many have also joined our teams, working to make a lasting impact in both their lives and the community.
Know God
God wants to know us personally. More than just practicing religion, He wants a relationship with us. Our weekend services are where we focus on that relationship. Whether you're new to faith, have questions, or have been a Christ follower for a long time, our services are a safe place to know what it means to know God and grow closer to Him.
Find Freedom
One of the ways God designed for us to live in freedom is to have people in our lives to help us on the journey. Connecting with others in a Victory Faith Church Small Group is a practical and enjoyable way to find that life-changing community.
Discover Purpose
We're all essential to God's plan, and our life will never make sense until we discover our purpose. The Victory Faith Growth Track is your first step in the critical process of finding your purpose. The Growth Track happens monthly.
Make A Difference
Making a difference in the lives of others is the ultimate plan for our life. When we do, the Bible tells us that we will experience joy. Through the Victory Faith Dream Team, we hope to connect every person to an opportunity to live out their calling by using their gifts and talents to serve others in the Church and the community.
Where We're Headed
In July 2024, Pastors Kyle and Anna Sadler shared their decision to move closer to family. In September, they began this new chapter, and now The Foursquare Church with the assistance of the Pastoral Transition Team, are actively seeking the next Lead Pastor(s) for Victory Faith Church.
What This Means For You
What does this mean for you? Wherever you're in your faith journey, we accept you as part of the Victory Faith family. Most importantly, you're always welcome at Victory Faith Church. We're saving a seat for you.
"Jesus Christ is at the center of everything. We believe that Jesus is the only one who can reconcile us to God. He lived a sinless and exemplary life, died on the cross in our place, and rose again to prove His victory and empower us for life. We believe that Jesus Christ is coming back again as He promised."
