The Foundry
The Foundry is a church replant. Born from groups of people whose sole desire was to bring back to life their local outpost in the Kingdom of God. After years of prayer, work, and planning The Foundry was born in September of 2018. In the four years since our rebirth, we have had over 25 baptisms, we have commissioned 9 families, and we have welcomed families from all ethnicities, ages, walks of life, and experiences of faith. In an area that is deeply impacted by the military and the political climate, our church is one that is consistently different. The average stay in Burke is less than two years. So we are an ever-changing, ever-evolving, ever-learning church. We hold deeply to the Restoration principle that “Methods are many, principles are few. Methods always change, principles never do.” And we cling to the theology of fun and learning from failure.
