Powdersville · Greenville · Online

Love God. Love people. Live on purpose.

Weekend services, family ministries, and a growing church family across the Upstate. Wherever you join us, you are welcome here.

Marathon exists to inspire people to follow Jesus.

We hope Marathon becomes a place where you meet God in a real way, build friendships that matter, and feel at home with people who are cheering you on.

What you will find here

Clear teaching from Scripture, worship that points you to Jesus, and age-specific environments for kids and students. Start at the Powdersville campus, the Greenville campus, or online at the same service times.
