A Vision To Change The World!

At Manna Church, our mission is to glorify God by equipping His people to change their world and by planting churches with the same world-changing vision.

Manna Church is a life-giving, non-denominational church that serves the people of Okaloosa County.

We seek to provide a place every week where people from all walks of life and backgrounds can experience the life-changing Presence of God, connect with encouraging people, and leave ready to make a difference in their world. We would love for you to join us!

What to Expect

We are excited for you and your family to join us this weekend in person!

We know meeting someone for the first time can be intimidating, and going to a new church for the first time can be nerve-racking. We want to help make your first experience at Manna Church a great one!

We encourage you to dress comfortably and plan on being greeted as soon as you pull into the parking lot! If you are bringing children, we’ll be sure to help you learn the check-in process. Finally we encourage you to enjoy some delicious hot or cold coffee before heading into service.

You can expect a service that lasts approximately 65 minutes, a welcoming atmosphere, contemporary worship music, and an engaging message. Our kids’ team will also provide a fun and safe experience designed specifically for your children (age 0 – 5th grade) that they will love!

Where do I park?

Parking is available in the main three lots surrounding the Auditorium entrance. Guests can enter from John Sims Parkway.

Dress in a way that is comfortable for you.

How long are services?

About 65 – 70 minutes

Is there something for my kids?

Manna Kids is available from infant up to Third Grade. The 4th & 5th graders attend a ‘Manna Kids Rally’ that takes the lesson from Manna Kids and implements it into a setting that mirrors the Student Ministry they’ll be stepping into when they reach the 6th grade.

How do I get involved?

The best place to get started here at Manna is on the Growth Track. Growth Track begins the first Sunday of every month. Find our more here. Here at Manna, we don’t volunteer, we SERVE. If you would like to join the SERVE Team, you can get connected here or fill out this form and we will help you find your fit.

Who can I talk to if I have questions?

The welcome team can help answer questions you may have and direct you to the right people to help.

When completing the First Time Guest card you can ask for a Manna Leader to contact you.

Coming With Kids?

From babies to fifth graders, we want you to have an excellent experience.

When you arrive, you will go directly to the Manna Kids check-in located in the gym. You’ll be greeted by one of our friendly Manna Kids leaders at the first-time check-in table. We’ll get some basic information from you and our check-in team will show your family around and explain the flow for Manna Kids. Each area (Elementary/Nursery/PreSchool) has a coach for the day that coordinates with the classroom teacher. The coach will be the main contact for the ministry area for the day and will be able to answer any questions about the flow of events.

Upon checking in, you and your child will receive stickers with a matching code specific to your family. After service, you will show the Manna Kids teacher your matching tag in order for your child to be released from his/her room.

In the event that we need to contact you during the service, we will text you at the number provided at check-in. Please remember to keep your phone accessible during the service in the event that your child needs you.

We do Three Things

Love God

We strive to provide inspiring worship experiences. We call them “experiences” because our goal is to passionately pursue the Presence of God and make much of His glory. Though we are one church that meets in many locations, each of our experiences is designed to meet this goal.

Love Each Other

We believe that the church of Jesus Christ are not a building or a location or even just a weekend experience. We believe that the church is people, and people were created to be in relationship. Our church engages in relationship and discipleship through our small group system.

Love The World

We believe that our job is to change the world. That is why we prioritize an aggressive outreach strategy.

Pastor Chris Shinnick

Senior Pastor

My heart is to see you become everything that God has called you to be, to do everything that God has created you to do, and I believe this begins with JESUS! He has radically changed my marriage, relationships, and life; I believe He is THE hope of the world.

Test Drive A Service

Listen to a past service at Manna Church to get a feel of a what service will be like when you attend.
