Churches of Christ

Churches of Christ are committed to taking the Bible as the only guide and creed for believers. Defining characteristics of churches of Christ include: congregational autonomy, believer's baptism, a weekly communion to remember Jesus' death, a capella music in worship and a strong commitment to the study of God's word.

Since 1956, York College has been affiliated with churches of Christ. College board members and the senior administrative team are comprised entirely of individuals who are active members of a church of Christ.

While the college is affiliated with churches of Christ, there is no membership requirement for students. Our central focus on faith does, however, have a profound influence on every aspect of the campus. Our commitment to the Lordship of Jesus Christ is the defining characteristic of the college.
