Our Story

    In 2007 The Promise Church held its  first official service.  The church continued to move right along, but Pastor Smedley’s passion to
    see people give saved would not let the church remain where it was.  His unquenchable passion for the unsaved encouraged him to
    move the church to Sunny Side.  Everyone told him not to start a church in an impoverished area, and everyone of Pastor Smedley’s
    mentors said that the church would not be able to financial sustain itself.  

    The church had a vision to reach the lost in a  non-traditional way and in a non-traditional environment, a school.  Suddenly word gets
    out that there is a church meeting in a school in the community.  People began to recognize that this church is different.   People began
    to see that this church loves people, has a family environment, and serves the community.

    Now just a few years later, The Promise church has baptized many people and has seen many give their lives to Jesus Christ.  Most
    importantly, The Promise church consistently sees their vision become reality as they constantly bring the Hope of Jesus Christ to
    others.
