At One Truth Church, we'd like to have the kind of contagious Christianity that can influence and encourage the entire community, one life at a time.
Our goal is to create a welcoming and inclusive environment where all individuals can grow in their relationship with God.
For years, Pastor Anatoliy felt a calling from God to move to Arizona with his family and plant a Slavic church. After relocating, he spent the first year seeking clarity, guidance and the will of God for their mission. Pastor Anatoliy, and his wife Alla, met Peter and Iris Kirdan who also recently moved to Arizona and shared their vision of starting a church to serve the Slavic community. A new friendship blossomed and in unity they prayed and dreamed about their shared mission. Those prayers were answered when they met brother Cornel and he helped them secure a building to rent for gatherings from Elim Romanian Pentecostal Church.
In January of 2016, Slavic Christian Church of Arizona was officially established under the leadership of Senior Pastor Anatoliy Kiselev. Through prayer, worship, planning, collaborative efforts with other churches and the help of additional families who joined their team, the church began to grow and reach out to the Slavic community in the Phoenix metro area. Years later, we’ve grown to be a diverse and multilingual congregation with members originating from different nations. As one body, we’ve undertaken various projects and events that have positively impacted the community and have deep gratitude for all who took part and participated.
The journey of faith and obedience, prayer and persistence, reflect our founder’s unwavering commitment to God’s plan for this ministry. Lives are transformed, hearts are united in love and service and the true message of the gospel is preached. Now as One Truth Church, we believe we are led by the Holy Spirit into the next chapter. With much anticipation and excitement, we look forward to the future God has in store for this ministry.
We invite you to explore our faith statements and join us in our pursuit of living out our faith in boldness and passion.
The sixty-six canonical books of the Bible as originally written were inspired of God, hence free from error. They constitute the only infallible guide in faith and practice.
There is one God, the Creator and Preserver of all things, infinite in being and perfection. He exists eternally in three Persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, who are of one substance and equal in power and glory.
The eternally pre-existent Son became incarnate without a human father, by being born of the Virgin Mary. Thus, in the Lord Jesus Christ, divine and human natures were united in one Person, both natures being whole, perfect, and distinct. To affect salvation, He lived a sinless life and died on the cross as the sinner's substitute, shedding his blood for the remission of sins. On the third day He rose from the dead in the body which had been laid in the tomb. He ascended to the right hand of the Father, where He performs the ministry of intercession. He shall come again, personally, and visibly, to complete His saving work and to consummate the eternal plan of God.
The Holy Spirit is the third Person of the Triune God. He applies to man the work of Christ. By justification and adoption, we are given a right standing before God; by regeneration, sanctification, and glorification our nature is renewed.
God created Adam and Eve in His own image. By disobedience, they fell from their sinless state through the temptation by Satan. This fall plunged humanity into a state of sin and spiritual death and brought upon the entire race the sentence of eternal death. From this condition we can be saved only by the grace of God, through faith, based on the work of Christ and by the agency of the Holy Spirit.
When we have turned to God in penitent faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, we are accountable to God for living a life separated from sin and characterized by the fruit of the Spirit. It is our responsibility to contribute by word and deed to the universal spread of the Gospel.
At the end of the age, the bodies of the dead shall be raised. The righteous shall enter full possession of eternal bliss in the presence of God, and the wicked shall be condemned to eternal death.
