Make the trade. Old life for new life in Jesus.

At Traders Church, we believe the best decision you'll ever make is trading your old life for new life in Jesus—and refusing to go back. We're not a church that overlooks people. Whether you've been in church your whole life or you're not sure you even believe in God, you matter here. We're a community of real people who've discovered that following Jesus isn't about having it all together—it's about honestly admitting we don't, and finding hope, freedom, and purpose in Him anyway.

Traders Church is part of the Wesleyan-Holiness family of churches in The American Church Story. 108 congregations of the Wesleyan-Holiness family gather across Missouri — 4,599 across the United States on The Church Map.

The Wesleyan-Holiness churches have insisted that God does not merely forgive people, he changes them — and they took that straight to the poorest streets they could find. The Salvation Army's kettles and soup lines, a century of rescue missions, and an early and costly record of ordaining women all came out of this family.

The community around Traders Church

Within about a mile of this church, more than 3 in 10 renting households pay over half of everything they earn just to keep a roof over them. About a third of the people here live below the poverty line, and about a third describe their own health as fair or poor. That is two thousand neighbors — and some of them are already in these pews.

Pray for the families one rent increase away from moving, and for this church to know their names.
