A Welcoming Church at the Heart of Coppell
Love God, Love One Another, Love the World
Rejoice offers a liturgical-based worship experience flavored with both traditional and post-modern hymns, instrumental and choral music, biblical preaching and rich fellowship every Sunday. Holy Communion is celebrated in each of our Sunday services and all believers are invited to participate in the celebration. A nursery for children under five is provided during worship services and during our hour of education when we meet in person.
All are welcome as we invite you to experience worship with us, share in God’s love and see first hand the power of God’s Spirit!

What We Believe
At the Heart of Everything We Do
We believe in the Triune God. God created and loves all of creation — the earth and the seas and all of the world’s inhabitants. We believe that God’s Son, Jesus Christ, transforms lives through his death on the cross and his new life, and we trust that God’s Spirit is active in the world.
We are part of God’s unfolding plan. When we gather for worship, we connect with believers everywhere. When we study the Bible or hear God’s word in worship, we are drawn more deeply into God’s own story.
The Creeds
Statements of Belief
The convictions shared by Christians from many different traditions are expressed in statements of belief called creeds.
These ecumenical creeds that Lutherans affirm and use in worship confess the faith of the church through the ages and around the world.
The Confession of Faith of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America is part of our founding constitution. The ELCA accepts the following creeds as true declarations of the faith of this church:
The Apostles’ Creed
The Nicene Creed
The Athanasian Creed
