Who We Are
Catalyst is a church that loves Jesus and loves each other. We are a gospel-centered biblical community that is eager to reach college students and the surrounding Newport News community.
Gospel-centered
We believe that the gospel is the good news that changes everything for you and this world! The gospel is not just for salvation but for all of life and all of the church.
COMMUNITY-ORIENTED
Jesus has called us to pursue our neighbors where they are like he does for us. This means that we talk, sing, and dress like those around us.
MISSION-MINDED
Jesus was on mission for us and sends us to live on mission for those around us. This is not just a one-time event but an everyday lifestyle for you individually and us collectively.
