A Christ-centered Sanctuary
Today, more than ever, the vibrant soul of downtown Memphis yearns for a Christ-centered sanctuary, capable of tending to the spiritual and tangible needs of its inhabitants. Our aspirations extend beyond corporate worship; we at Pioneer Church envision a community hub, designed to cater to the distinct needs of our beloved downtown neighbors.

The Vision
We’ve christened our mission Meaningful to Memphis because we firmly believe that pioneers purposefully add meaning into regions and lives that often are deemed inconsequential and overlooked. The community center we envision will cast a lasting influence on Memphis and will be a gift for both the present generation and those yet to come. This haven will boast a sanctuary for fervent worship, a gymnasium featuring a full basketball court for diverse athletic pursuits, a fully equipped commercial kitchen where our houseless brethren can share meals, and creative studios where young people can hone and showcase their God-given talents.
