Back in 2011, two churches merged together to become the West Congregation of The Austin Stone. Since then, God has been faithful to grow our church into a multi-generational community of faith where people can belong, connect, and be led for His glory. Even though our people come from all different backgrounds,
we’re unified by a love for God and for each other. We’re a mix of young professionals, married couples, busy families, and empty nesters. Whatever stage of life you’re in, there’s a place for you at Austin Stone West.

Each Sunday, we host programming for children 8 weeks old through 5th grade at 9am and 11am. Our thoroughly vetted and trained volunteers provide a safe and fun environment for kids to worship Jesus in a large-group setting and learn about the Bible in a smaller group. And for nursery-aged children, we provide a caring space where they are prayed over and cared for during services.
5th, 6th, and 7th graders meet during the 11am service on Sundays to play games, eat donuts, and learn how to engage with God's Word. In our discussion-based lessons, we use the REAP method to help students feel comfortable and confident reading the Bible on their own!
6th, 7th, and 8th graders gather weekly on Wednesdays from 7-8:30pm for a night of community, fun, food, and engaging in God's Word together! This space is for middle schoolers to build friendships and a foundation of faith as they learn more about Jesus.
On Sunday mornings, we encourage students in 8th through 12th grade to attend the 11am service as they learn how to integrate into our church family. We want to empower students to love the local church—whether through worshiping alongside their friends and parents, sitting under the elders' teaching, or serving in another ministry.
High school students also gather weekly in host homes for DCOMMs (discipleship communities) and on the third Sunday of every month for our High School Rally Nights.

We’d recommend attending one of our Discovery events which take place throughout the year. At these quick gatherings, you’ll have an opportunity to meet our pastors and elders, hear more about The Austin Stone, and ask any lingering questions you may have!
If you’re looking for community, we’d love to get you plugged into a group! Each semester, we offer a class that outlines what it means to be invested in a Group at The Austin Stone. You can stop by our Connections area on Sunday mornings to get more information.
You can also volunteer on one of our service teams to get to know more people at our West Congregation!
When you arrive, you’ll be greeted and guided by our Welcome Team! They’ll be happy to help answer any questions you may have. From there, feel free to stop by our Connections area. We’d love to meet you!
During the service, you’ll experience engaging worship with a live band and biblically-based teaching from an in-person sermon or a broadcasted sermon from one of our other congregations!
Yes! Our Kids Ministry has programming available for newborns through 5th grade. Upon arrival, follow the signs to the Kids check-in area. If you need any help, find a volunteer wearing an Austin Stone shirt—they’ll point you in the right direction! Because of our commitment to safety, you’ll check your child(ren) in using our check-in system. If it’s your first time visiting, please plan on arriving 20-30 minutes before the service to check your little ones in!
We also have a Students Ministry that hosts a service for middle schoolers during the 11am service and high schoolers at 5pm for a time focused on building community, having fun, and establishing a firm foundation of faith!
We don’t currently have live interpretation, but our South Congregation does offer live American Sign Language interpretation during their 9am service each Sunday! We also post each sermon online with closed captioning.
Yes! We have an Adult Bible Fellowship that meets at 11am every Sunday morning and each semester we offer a variety of studies and equipping classes throughout the year.
