A church with open doors and open hearts
MEDSELI — 'be opened.' The word Jesus spoke that opened ears, hearts, and lives.
Rooted in Mattapan, reaching the world.
Mission Église de Dieu Sel et Lumière is a Haitian-American church located in Mattapan, Boston. Founded by Rev. Chrisner Pierre, our church exists to spread the love and teachings of Jesus Christ, strengthen families, build faith, and serve the community with compassion, prayer, and biblical truth.
We are a congregation shaped by prayer, worship, and the Word. Whether you have walked with Christ for decades or are simply asking questions, we welcome you.

Meet the Pastor
To spread the love and teachings of Jesus Christ.
Our mission is to spread the love and teachings of Jesus Christ, helping people grow in faith, experience the power of prayer, and live with purpose according to the Word of God.
A city and a people, opened to Christ.
We envision families restored, generations discipled, and Mattapan awakened to the hope of the Gospel.
What we hold dear
The Word
Scripture is our foundation and final authority in faith and life.
Love
We love God fully and love our neighbor as ourselves.
Family
The church is a household of faith — every generation matters.
Service
We serve Mattapan and beyond in the name of Jesus.
Spirit-Led
We seek the guidance and power of the Holy Spirit in all we do.
Mission
Making disciples who make disciples for the glory of God.
A Haitian-American Church
We stand in the historic Christian tradition — Scripture alone, salvation by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, believer's baptism by immersion, the priesthood of all believers, and the autonomy of the local church under the Lordship of Christ.
