OUR STORY

Founded in 1912, our church was originally named Stockton First Church of the Nazarene. Serving under that name for many years, we had multiple locations that God called us to, in and throughout Stockton! Our long history is a testimony to God's faithfulness to the people of the central valley, and we are eager to continuing onward in His call for Midtown Stockton! You can learn more about where AXIS church came from by joining us for one of our "Discover AXIS" classes. Click below to find out when our next class will be held!

OUR MISSION

To know Jesus fully and make Jesus fully known.

Jesus defined eternal life, not as a place to go when we die, but to "know the One True God and His Son Jesus Christ, whom He sent" (John 17:3). We believe that Jesus invites us ALL to live an abundant life found only in and through a life with Him. We also believe that once we find the life that Jesus died to give us, God then calls us to take that message of hope to the world around us. That is the foundation of our Mission here at AXIS .... that everything we do revolves around Knowing Jesus fully and Making Jesus fully Known.
