A safe place to explore your faith.
Finding Jesus, Knowing Jesus, Showing Jesus.
Our vision at Watermarke Church is to help people FIND a personal relationship with Jesus, to help people KNOW Jesus better by growing deeper in that relationship, and to challenge people to SHOW Jesus to others in their lives.
Renovations are underway at our new building at 1680 Zion Road, Bellefonte, and we hope to move in soon! Meanwhile, we meet every Sunday at 10:00 am in the parking lot for an outdoor service. You’re invited to sit in your car and tune to our broadcast radio channel (106.9 FM), or bring a camping chair and join us in the assembly area in front of the stage. Due to internet limitations, we are no longer able to provide a livestream of our services on Facebook, but video will be available following each service on Facebook, Youtube and on this website.
Splash Sunday School will take place during the second half of the service at the designated canopies, and portable restrooms will be available for your convenience.
We hope you’ll join us this Sunday as we continue to worship together during our transition at Watermarke Church!

June 2019
Hot Seat: Abortion
Abortion has been legal in our country for nearly 50 years, yet the issues surrounding this controversial issue have been around for millennia. What does the Bible say about abortion? What does God think about abortion? As followers of Jesus, we desire to understand and follow His heart concerning abortion, just as we desire to follow His heart in all things.
Hot Seat: Sexual Purity
Our world is saturated by the sexual, yet God gave sex to us as a gift. How do we reconcile living with purity in this area of lives with the constant bombardment of impurity around us?
May 2019
Hot Seat: Depression & Anxiety
Depression and anxiety can affect anyone at anytime, yet it continues to be a subject that is difficult for us to talk about. As followers of Jesus, how can we best engage in an ongoing conversation about mental and emotional struggles that plague our society, both inside and outside the church?
Hot Seat: Politics
Public debate on social media and news outlets today are rife with anger and polarizing influences. But does that mean we should avoid talking about “hot button” issues? In this series, we enter the “hot seat” to address current issues that may be difficult, but shouldn’t be avoided. First up: politics.
