Tehachapi Metro is about 37, 000 in population. Of this number, only about 5, 000 attend church on a given Sunday. So about 32, 000 either drive several miles outside of the Tehachapi area, or just don’t go to church anywhere. We believe that the vision to plant a new church in the Tehachapi area is to reach those of the 32, 000 that God wants us to reach. We also believe that if the vision of a new church plant is truly of God, it will succeed as we submit to God and his word and leave the results up to him.
