OUR STORY:
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.
MADISON CAMPUS:
We planted our Madison campus in 2006, and God has done some fantastic things in our midst! Currently, we welcome 1700 children, students, and adults each weekend from across Madison County to our worship experiences, bless the community through our Care Center and other ministries, and are a vibrant expression of Christ to all those in Madison County! What's more, Madison is one of the fastest growing counties in the state, with an 8.1% population growth over the past five years and over 100,000 current residents!
