Our Mission

Empowering one another to journey with jesus every day.

Venture Christian Church is a new congregation coming to Fort Wayne, Indiana. Why?

Because our city is full of people searching for meaning, carrying wounds, and wondering if God could ever be for them. At Venture, the invitation is simple: come as you are, bring your questions, and discover the hope, healing, and transformation Jesus brings.

Together, we’re building a church for the unchurched, a home for the hurting, and a community that lives boldly for Christ.

Venture Christian Church launches October 4, 2026.

God has planted Venture downtown – in the heart of Fort Wayne – at a tremendous venue called, Baker Street Centre.

And the perks are wonderful:

  • We’re right across the parking lot from Parkview Field, home of the Fort Wayne TinCaps

  • The auditorium can seat up to 375 people

  • We have a dedicated Kids Ministry space

But to make this space ready for us to welcome people with tremendous hospitality, we need your help!
