HISTORY
EST. 1928
Movement Church has a rich history shaped by faith, vision, and a deep commitment to Woodstock. What began decades ago as Calvary Church Woodstock was built by everyday people taking bold steps to serve their community and share hope. In 2018, we embraced a new name—Movement Church—to reflect a renewed vision: to help people find life in Jesus and live out their purpose.
Over the last decade, we’ve grown from a church of 300 to a thriving community of over 1,000. Along the way, hundreds have made the decision to follow Jesus, find belonging, and live with purpose as part of this movement.
And we’re just getting started. We’re passionate about creating a space where people of all backgrounds can belong, grow, and make a difference. If you’re looking for a place to be part of something meaningful, we’d love to welcome you.
BELIEFS
At Movement Church, our beliefs are rooted in the Bible and shaped by our identity as a Pentecostal church affiliated with the Pentecostal Assemblies of Canada (PAOC). We hold to the core truths of the Christian faith and believe in the active work of the Holy Spirit in the lives of believers today.
Our faith is centered on Jesus Christ, the authority of Scripture, and the life-transforming power of the gospel. We embrace the Spirit-empowered life, believing that God still speaks, moves, and works through His people to bring hope and healing to the world.
-
We believe that the scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are the inspired Word of God and that men were moved by the Spirit of God to write the very words of Scripture. Therefore, we believe the Bible is without error. 2 Timothy 3:16–17 & 2 Peter 1:20–21
-
We believe that all people were created in the image of God to have fellowship with him but became alienated in that relationship through sinful disobedience. As a result, people are incapable of regaining a right relationship with God through their own efforts.
-
We believe in one personal God who exists eternally in three distinct persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, equal in power, authority and glory.
-
We believe that the blood of Jesus Christ, shed on the cross, provides the only way for the forgiveness of sin. God freely offers salvation to those who place their faith in the death and resurrection of Christ as sufficient payment for their sin. Salvation cannot be earned, it is a gift from God.
-
We believe Jesus Christ to be the virgin-born Son of God who lived in flesh, died for the sins of the world, was buried, rose again bodily, and ascended to the Father.
-
We believe in the universal church, the body of Christ, of which Jesus Christ is the head. The members of the church are those who have trusted by faith in the finished work of Christ. The purpose of the church is to glorify God by loving him, obeying Him and bringing the gospel to the world.
-
We believe in the Holy Spirit who regenerates and indwells every believer in Jesus, assures us of our salvation, guides us into all truth, glorifies Jesus and convicts of sin, righteousness and judgment. He comforts us, gives us spiritual gifts, and empowers us for service.
-
We believe in the personal, visible return of Christ to the earth and the establishing of His Kingdom, in the resurrection of the body, and the final judgment. We believe that our eternal destination of either heaven or hell is determined by our response to the Lord Jesus Christ.
