Our Mission & Beliefs
We are a congregation who seeks to be the body of Christ, who is led by Christ, empowered through the Holy Spirit, all to the glory of God. We hold God’s word to be authoritative and guiding for our life and a church and as individuals.
Jesus told us in John 14:15, “If you love Me, you will keep My commandments.” This means we seek to love God and love our neighbor through our worship and our missional callings, all so that the Gospel is proclaimed and God is loved, honored, and glorified.

Our History
Westmont Christian Church was founded in the fall of 1958, when the Lubbock Joint Board of Christian Churches saw the need for a Christian Church to serve fast-growing Southwest Lubbock. Five acres of land were donated through the generosity of the G.P. (George Paul) Kuykendall family at Westmont Christian Church’s current site. On July 19, 1959, ground was broken for the structure that would house the new congregation. The first service, with Kenneth E. Jones as Minister, was held Sunday, September 20, 1959, in the Slide Road Community House, located on 50th & Slide. The congregation entered its new building December 27, 1959.
Through the years we were the fastest growing church in Lubbock which led to the building of our current sanctuary in 1988. Since then, we have experienced the highs and lows that many churches have weathered.
Today, our roots are firmly planted in the Word of God and we are proud to still be thriving after all of these years. We look forward to continued to growth in order to spread the Gospel and love of God to the people in the Lubbock community and beyond.
