Who We Are - Big Island Run Church

Who We Are

A family of believers rooted in Jesus, growing together, and reaching out to our community with love and grace.

Our Mission

To glorify God by making disciples of Jesus Christ who love God wholeheartedly, love people genuinely, and serve our community faithfully.

Our Vision

To be a Christ-centered community where every person is welcomed, equipped, and sent out to share the hope of the Gospel in Elizabeth, West Virginia, and beyond.

Our Core Values

Scripture First

The Bible is our foundation and final authority. We study it, teach it, and live by it — trusting that God's Word is living and active in every season of life.

Authentic Community

We believe church isn't just a Sunday event — it's a family. We walk through life together with honesty, accountability, and genuine love for one another.

Servant Hearts

Following the example of Jesus, we look for ways to serve — in our church, our neighborhoods, and wherever God leads us. No act of kindness is too small.

Bold Faith

We trust God for big things. We pray boldly, give generously, and step out in faith, knowing that He is able to do far more than we could ask or imagine.

Our Story

Big Island Run Church was born out of a simple desire: to know Jesus and make Him known in our corner of West Virginia. What started as a small group of faithful believers gathering together has grown into a vibrant church family that reaches across generations.

Nestled in the hills of Wirt County, we've always been a church that values relationships — with God and with each other. Over the years, we've seen God move in powerful ways: lives transformed, families restored, and a community drawn together by the love of Christ.

Today, we continue to pursue the same mission that has guided us from the beginning — making disciples who love God, love people, and serve with willing hands. Whether you've been walking with Jesus for decades or you're just beginning to explore faith, there's a place for you here.
