Word of Life Church is a large church led by Pastor Brian and Peri Zahnd in Saint Joseph, Missouri, about 30 minutes North of Kansas City. We are a non-denominational Christian church, which simply means that we are governed by our own elders, not by an outside organization. About 4,000 people worship at Word of Life each weekend.

Our vision is to wholeheartedly participate in God’s mission to redeem people and restore his world through Jesus Christ.

Our mission is to Connect people to Jesus Christ and one another, Grow in the Christian virtues of faith, hope, and love, and Serve others in Christlike humility.
