THE OVERFLOW STORY

WHO IS OVERFLOW CHURCH

Overflow is a church plant (started in 2007) that is centered on the life, message, and mission of Jesus Christ as found in the scriptures. We’re uniquely located at the crossroads that lead directly into St. Joseph and Benton Harbor, on the corner of Napier and Broadway, and we believe that is completely by God’s design…we are a crossroad of cultures, unified in community with one another.
