In 1921, seven individuals banded together with a dream to plant a church to reach their city and touch their world to the honor of Jesus Christ. The dream of a church reaching the city and the world became a reality and has grown to what is known today as Salem Alliance Church. Locations and names may have changed over the years, but the vision and heart embodied by our humble beginnings haven't.
Jesus had a beautiful way of interacting with the people of His day. He touched the untouchable, accepted the rejected, and taught with creativity and authority. John, a disciple and one of His closest friends, described this beauty when he wrote, "grace and truth came through Jesus Christ." It is my hope that you will not only notice this beauty at Salem Alliance, but that you'll experience it.
Blessings!

Lead Pastor
WHAT TO EXPECT
Weekend Experience
Salem Alliance is a Biblically functioning community where you will encounter grace and truth in a casual setting.
Each weekend experience is about an hour and five minutes. There is music and practical Biblical teaching. Our preaching team, led by Steve Fowler, and worship team, led by Laura Scharer, guide our worship of Jesus.
Dress casually. Everybody does. Take a look around. There are married couples, singles, young people, older people, professionals, laborers, single moms, single dads ... thousands of people come to Salem Alliance every weekend. Each has a unique life story, just like you do. Wherever you are on your spiritual journey, you're welcome to walk your next steps at Salem Alliance.
