Our History
Ocean City Worship Center was started in 1991 on Easter Sunday at Berlin Middle School. After six months, the meeting location was moved to Stephen Decatur High School, where services continued to meet for three years. During these years the church grew to 35 people.
In the fall of 1994, the congregation moved to the Berlin Shopping Center. Within a matter of months the church tripled to nearly 100 on Sunday mornings.
By the fall of 1995, continued growth prompted another move and the church began meeting at the present location on Route 50. After a year the congregation had doubled again to nearly 200.
In 1996 several members of the congregation assisted in renovating the warehouse in the back of the building. Although this allowed for more space, the continued growth made it necessary to have two services on Sunday morning.
In January 2000, the Lord began directing the congregation towards moving once again to another facility. This began the Capital Stewardship Campaign and we began to raise funds.
In 2005, the Worship Center purchased 25 acres near our current location just minutes from the ocean. In the coming months it is our prayer that God will give us clear direction concerning the steps that He would have us to take. It is our passion to see His heart for this area fulfilled through us.
