Meet Transformation Church

Transformation Church is  a multiethnic, multigenerational, multi-site, mission-shapred community that believes the Church is not just a building, but a people committed to loving God completely, loving themselves correctly, and loving their neighbors compassionately. Transformation Church is passionate about partnering with God to bring heaven to earth, embracing His vision to unite people in living Upward, Inward, and Outward lives.  

Transformation Church believes that the local Church reflects God’s heart where people of all nations, tribes, and backgrounds will worship God together as one body (Rev 7:9) and that the church exists not only to reflect God’s Kingdom on earth but to extend it-  beginning in the South Charlotte area and beyond.
