This Past Sunday, following our Zoom Worship Service, Sepa Nashale introduced Church of the Servant to True Vine Church, a new church plant. We invite you to read his message below and check out the brochure for True Vine, linked here.


Dear brothers and sisters in the name of Jesus Christ,

Welcome to our new church plant “True Vine Church” Grand Rapids. Our church reflects the sense of Connection with Jesus Christ.

Our church is named according to the Scripture reading in John 15:1-8.
So, we depend on Jesus for everything, starting with our life. No one can serve God effectively until he/she relates to Jesus Christ by faith. Jesus is our only connection with God who gave life and who produces in us a fruitful life of righteousness and services.

We desire to welcome others into this adventure we are on to know Jesus and make Him known in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and all over the world to all nations.

We are intentionally a multicultural church where all people from all cultures and backgrounds can find a place to belong, and serve, a place to believe in Jesus Christ and His love for all, and a place to use spiritual gifts.
The mission is to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ to all people of all nations and to make disciples out of them. Our mission will be to offer restoration, healing, and hope to those in despair while continuously reviving people to their destiny for God. It will also be our mission to foster spiritual growth through a commitment to scripture and personal excellence.

The vision: to see a reached community that is involved in true worship to God and which will spread his fame by being faithful to his calling. This church hopes to become self-supporting, vibrant, and missionary-minded promoting joyful worship while developing the community.

Involvement & Support: God enabling you, there are various ways in which you may be involved in the activities of the True Vine Church. You may offer your service through prayers. You may also have an opportunity to take part in church activities by making donations to help the church meet its financial obligations and provide used musical instruments.

The church is temporarily located at 2831 Woodward Ave SW, Wyoming, MI 49509, near Family Dollar on 28th Street. The Sunday service is bilingual (French/Swahili and English).

Sunday worship time: 4 – 5:30 pm

I consider it an honor to lead this church and look forward to getting any supports from you.

Together in God’s Kingdom.

– Pastor Sepa Nashale.
