The story of Pinelake Church began in February of 1971 in Brandon, Mississippi in a mobile chapel in a rural area near The Reservoir. By God's grace and power, our faith family has grown into a dynamic church spanning five cities throughout our state -- Clinton, Madison, Oxford, the Reservoir, and Starkville. Weekly, we serve over 12,000 people, but we celebrate stories of life change one person at a time.
CLINTON CAMPUS:
We planted our Clinton campus in 2009 and have become a vibrant expression of Christian community to the people of Clinton and the surrounding area. We connect to 800 children, youth, adults, and college students each week.
