Meet Currey Creek Church:

Currey Creek began as a church plant of First Baptist Church of Boerne in 2001. Pastor John Free was strategically brought in to lead a group of people into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ who are influencing others to do the same. Currey Creek’s mission is threefold:

EXALT

To honor God at all cost, we commit to apply biblical teaching in every area of our personal lives and in our life together as a local church.

ENGAGE

To serve strategically, we will be motivated by the gospel to serve our community as well as partner with churches globally to strengthen the body of Christ. God’s priority to change the world is through the local church.

ENRICH

To pursue life-change in community, we will create relevant environments and provide opportunities for growth as Christ-followers living in biblical community. Discipleship and care happen best in small groups.
