Safe Harbor Church WFMCC

About this church

Safe Harbor Church begins Sunday School at 10:15 a.m. and worship at 11:00 at 1401 Travis Street in Wichita Falls. Worship normally runs until 12:30 and can be joined online through the current link published by the church. Services draw from several Christian traditions and incorporate music, art, media, readings, contemporary reflection, and a children’s sermon. Children of every age are welcomed into worship, with a nursery available when little ones need room to move.

Founded in 1987 as Wichita Falls Metropolitan Community Church and renamed Safe Harbor in January 2025, the congregation was created as an affirming sanctuary for LGBTQIA+ people and continues to proclaim God’s inclusive love. It belongs to Metropolitan Community Churches, a Christian denomination shaped by social justice, inclusion, and healing from spiritual abuse. The church describes itself as exuberantly inclusive while making room for members who do not agree on every theological detail. Its community work includes comfort-care visits and a visual-art scholarship that grew from a public affirmation project. Visitors can expect a service where diverse liturgical influences and embodied welcome are intentional, not incidental, and where children, varied gender identities, sexualities, and stages of belief are treated as part of one worshiping community.
