Summit Assembly is a Church Plant of the Assemblies of God.  Founding Pastor Cliff Waterman and his family began meeting as a core group at a Lee’s Summit school in October 2001.  In April 2002 the property at 1050 SE Century Drive was leased and they began a tenant finish that would fit the needs of the church.  The core continued to train and prepare towards the “Grand Opening” planned in October.  On the weekend of October 5^th & 6^th, 2002, the church announced the Grand Opening of Summit Assembly and held the 1^st Annual Fall Harvest Festival.

Summit Assembly is a Community and Family based Church.  We are committed to Family values, dynamic worship, and word ministry by building relationships through Fellowship, that the world may believe God sent His Son, Jesus Christ.

1.   Scriptures (the Holy Bible) written by men moved by the Holy Spirit are inspired and are the revelation of God to man, the infallible, authoritative rule of faith and conduct (2 Timothy 3:15-17; 1 Thessalonians 2:13; 2 Peter 1:21).

2.   There is one true God revealed as the eternally self-existent “I AM,” the Creator of heaven and earth and the Redeemer of mankind (Deuteronomy 6:4; Isaiah 43:10, 11; Matthew 28:19).

3.   Lord Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God.  

a.  Virgin birth (Matthew 1:23).

b.  Sinless life (Hebrews 7:26).

c.   Miracles testify (Acts 2:22).

d.   Substitutionary work on the cross 
(1 Corinthians 15:3).

e.   Resurrection from the dead 
(Matthew 28:6).

f.    Exaltation to the right hand of God 
(Acts 1:9).

4.   Man voluntarily committed high treason against God’s Word thereby incurring not only physical sickness and death but also spiritual death, which is separation from God (Genesis 1:26; Romans 5:12).

5.   Christ has reconciled us to the Father.  If man confesses Jesus Christ as Lord and believes that God raised Jesus from the dead, he/she will be saved.  It is through the heart that we believe and through the mouth that we confess our faith for salvation (Romans 10:13).

6.   The Church celebrates two lasting ordinances.  Water Baptism by immersion as a public witness to our spiritual renewal (Acts 10:47).  Holy Communion consisting of the elements of bread and the fruit of the vine (1Corinthians 11:26).

7.   All believers should expect the promise of the Father, the Baptism in the Holy Spirit (Acts 1:8).

8.   This experience is initially evidenced by speaking in unknown languages (tongues) (Acts 2:4; 1 Corinthians 12-14).

9.   Believers should live a life of conviction.  This act of sanctification calls us to separate from evil and unto a holy lifestyle 
(Romans 12:12).

10. The Church is a fellowship of believers and is the body of Christ (Hebrews 12:23).

11. The Ministry is a divinely called and scripturally ordained leadership of the Church to equip believers to works of service.  The Ministry is to invest its time to pray, preaching, and training in righteousness (Ephesians 4: 11-16).

12. Everywhere that Jesus went He healed the sick.  The Church is commissioned to heal the sick.  Therefore, Divine Healing is atoned for and is a privilege of all who receive the Good News (Isaiah 53:4).

13. Jesus was raised from the dead as the first-fruits of the resurrection.  All who express faith in Jesus will experience resurrection to eternal life (1Thessalonians 4:16).

14. Jesus said that He would return to receive us to be with Him.  The Second Coming of Christ includes the rapture of the saints, and the millennial reign of Christ upon the earth (Matthew 24:27).

15. There will be a final judgment for those who failed to confess Jesus as Lord (Matthew 25:46).  Following the judgment whosoever is not found in the Lamb’s Book of Life will be committed to eternal punishment 
(Mark 9:43-48).

16. Believers will dwell eternally on a new earth (2 Peter 3:13).
