The Christian Apostolic Church has been in Coshocton for over forty years. It began through the outreach ministry of The Christian Apostolic Church in Newark, Ohio. It has become somewhat of a landmark in Coshocton County and has seen many changes take place on both the inside and outside.
However, we believe that we have entered a new and exciting era. God has been blessing and we are seeing souls in our country stirred to a desire to find the God of their youth. The Spirit truly is being poured out in these last days and we are seeing this in many areas. Backsliders are making their way back home to God. Young people are looking for absolutes in a world that doesn't know right from wrong, searching for truth. Families are tired of trying to keep up with the world and all of the dysfunction that goes with its sinful lifestyle. God is working in these last days to do truly amazing and miraculous things in the lives of people, regardless of race, background, and income or education level. Truly God is calling "Whosoever Will" in these last days of revival.
Leadership
Our Senior Pastor, Wilbur White and his wife, Linda, came to Coshocton, Ohio in 1984. It was no coincidence that God called them to this area, as the Lord had been cultivating this seed for many years. Pastor White's abilities as a teacher and leader have helped bring the church to where it is today. He oversaw a tremendous building project, along with using his wisdom to help us
acquire nearby lots for our fellowship hall and parking. The White's have served in every capacity throughout the years - from cleaning to teaching, from witnessing to praying folks through to the Holy Ghost. They have worn each and every hat at one time or another in the years that they have served. We are so thankful and appreciative to the White's for their labor of love throughout these many years. Pastor and Sister White have three adult children: Tracy (Gimpel), Stephanie (Dillingham) and Matthew Glen.
Our Pastor, Chris Gimpel and his wife, Tracy, came to Coshocton in 1985. After meeting at Apostolic Bible Institute, getting married and serving for a short time in Nebraska, they came to help the White's in Coshocton. Pastor Gimpel's ability to preach with great anointing and his burden for outreach have brought our church to the next level. Pastor Gimpel also currently serves as the Ohio District Secretary/Treasurer of the Home Missions Division. Pastor Gimpel has great aspirations for what God will continue to do through His will and Spirit here at The Christian Apostolic Church. The Gimpel's have three children: Nathan (engaged to Caitlin Powell - both in law school in Chicago) and Jonathan, and Melinda Jane.

There is one God who has manifested Himself in three ways - as Father, Son, & Holy Ghost - and His Name is Jesus!
The Bible is the infallible Word of God
which contains all truth and will never perish.
Everyone has sinned and needs salvation. "There is none righteous, no not one."
We must obey the gospel through repentance (death to sin), water baptism in the Name of Jesus Christ (burial), and receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost (resurrection) according to Peter's message in Acts 2:38-39.
We believe it is God's will for us to live a separated life. This means living a holy life and dressing in a holy fashion every day. Our holiness is not our salvation, but is the result of a consecrated, dedicated life.
Jesus Christ is coming again to catch His bride (the Church) away. It is our desire to be ready when He comes and take as many people as we can with us!
The righteous will inherit eternal life!
