Christian Church in Arizona

The Christian Church in Arizona is one of 33 geographic areas of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). Most often we are known as the “Arizona Region.”

The primary nature of regional ministries is to look after the congregations in their geographic area.

Our congregations call Regions to fulfill the mission of the Church by taking the lead in developing new forms of ministry in mission, witness and service. Regions also are nurturing agents that provide support, guidance and pastoral care to ministers and congregations. Additionally, Regions provide for standing and credentialing of ministers, and support for relocation of pastors, and filling vacant ministerial positions. Regions help find interim minsters for churches that are without permanently called pastors.
