Living Word Church was born out of a desire to worship God and preach the gospel in an atmosphere of spiritual liberty. Pastors Jerry and Janice Sullivan founded the church together with young couples in their home in November of 1979. The church was started with a focus on spiritual growth and development with the theme "transformed into the image of Chirst" (2 Corinthians 3:18). Soon, the church began to meet in a storefront in Grand Bay, Alabama. Later the church purchased property and moved to a location on Old Pascagoula Road. Family ministry was at the heart of the church's establishment. This led to the founding of Living Word Academy in 1983. In August of 1995, the church purchased 8 acres and an existing building. After renovating the building, the church was relocated to its current location on Dawes Road in west Mobile.

Since then, God has blessed the church with the adjoining 12 acres of land. A new facility is currently under construction. The vision is to develop a campus on these 20 acres that will house a youth center, provide room for the expansion of the school and daycare, provide adequate space for the ministries of the church, as well as, athletic and recreational facilities for community involvement. The new building is a 20,000 square foot facility. It will house our new 500 seat sanctuary, nurseries and church offices downstairs and the children's ministries and Sunday school upstairs.
We are excited about God's purpose for our future!
