Congregation Vision Statement: We want to be a church who is devoted to the way of Jesus Christ in everything we do.
We are people who love Jesus Christ that come from different countries, mother tongues, and generations. We are devoted to share the truth about Jesus, not only during services on Sunday, but every day of the week through Bible studies, sharing time with people, mentoring, and acts of service.
We are a New Testament Christian Congregation. Our sermons and teachings come directly from the Bible with no additional creed or book of doctrines. We follow the teachings of Jesus Christ and the instructions to the church by the apostles. We study the Old Testament to know the heart of God and to understand the context of the early church who were coming out of Judaism.
During our worship services on Sunday we share the messages of God from the Bible in English and sing in both English and Estonian. We offer Estonian translation for those who desire it and have now begun including Estonian captions to the YouTube video recordings of every Sunday worship service. The YouTube link to the Tartu New Testament Christian Congregation can be found on the bottom of this page, or by clicking on the Sermons page.
We have a core team of full-time teachers of the Bible and advocates for Jesus Christ. We joyfully offer Bible studies and English lessons from the Bible. We each have Bachelor's degrees in Bible or Theology along with years of ministry experience. Our congregation currently has Estonian, English, Spanish, and Finnish speakers who are excited to meet and welcome you!
