Open Door Church of God in Christ

About this church

Open Door Church of God in Christ in Austin begins Sunday School at 9:30 a.m. and Sunday worship at 10:30. “Wednesday in the Word” meets on Zoom at 7:15 p.m. Sunday School offers age-level Scripture study, discussion, fellowship, life application, and opportunities to develop gifts. The midweek study uses an informal, interactive format. Because the official site remains on HTTP rather than HTTPS, the directory retains the working first-party address; visitors who do not want to submit information through an unsecured form can use the published social or telephone channels.

Open Door traces its founding to Elder Otis I. Walker after more than fifteen years as an assistant pastor. The first congregation met in a small East Tenth Street building before developing its own Austin ministry. Church of God in Christ doctrine on the site includes biblical inspiration, one triune God, redemption through Jesus' blood and repentant faith, new life by the Holy Spirit, healing, and Christ's return. Generation Next and Kingz Kids support youth and young adults through Bible study, Sunday School, education initiatives, mentoring, college tours, worship, fellowship, service, and outreach. Families can combine education and worship on Sunday, while Wednesday participation requires Zoom access rather than travel to East Twelfth Street.
