Our Story
When picking a name for the church, we wanted a name that emphasized one God, one life, and one community. So we decided on the name One Church Joplin.
Shane Munn and his wife, Julie, felt the call of God on their lives to start a church and followed in obedience on October 26th, 2014, with no place to meet but their home. And that is where the church, not even named yet, took root. From the Munn's house, One Church Joplin moved to the local YMCA, then a school, before finding a permanent location.
Now One Church gladly calls 2802 New Hampshire Ave home, where they have two services every Sunday at 9:30 am and 11:00 am.
