How it all started...
After over 30 years of Words and Prayer, Derek and Tammy decided to found the Upper Room right in the nestle of their own home almost 7 years ago. The church has seen countless different aspects of ministry flow throughout the years, expanding and ultimately landing in our building on Creek Street in March 2018.
The Lord encountered Tammy and Derek in a powerful, raw, real way, and the church has always embodied that. We have the opportunity and privilege of serving along countless other missions, ministries, and foundations across the globe, and it all started in that living room. God is so good, and our ministry is forever grateful at the boldness and perseverance portrayed by our leadership. God's Grace reins forevermore, and we are passionate about showing the world that they are loved!

Expanding the vision...
In this season, The Upper Room has been preparing for seasons of Outreach and new moves of God. We encountered many changes in the last year, and are glad to finally be settled into our new home. We have taken measures to grow both spiritually and naturally, as many families have grown in this year, and are looking forward to all of the new members ready to serve our community we love and enjoy!
Where we are headed...
"I lift my eyes unto the mountains, - where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord..."
We look up unto the heavens, fully expectant of God's next move in our city and nation. Within the building, expect to see more of a display of love surrounding small groups, culture-building community events, and a larger outpouring of the Holy Spirit. We believe that the Lord is doing a new thing in this moment, and are so excited to follow His lead on this adventurous journey!
