OUR STORY
Thirty years of bringing the love of Christ to the great city of St. Louis.
From 27 People to a Thriving Community
Faith Community Church began on Sunday, September 15, 1996, with a passion to share the love of Christ with people in America's great cities.
That first Sunday, chairs were arranged and a platform was set up in the Knights of Columbus Hall in St. Ann. Then a church bus went into the community to bring children to Sunday school. Twenty-seven people from the St. Louis area attended that first service — and a new church family was born.
After meeting in three different locations, Faith Community Church moved to its present two-acre campus on Lindbergh Boulevard, just two miles south of Interstate 70. Today, our 250-seat sanctuary is a place where people of all ages come together to worship, grow in faith, build lasting friendships, and serve the community.
From 27 people gathered in a rented hall to the thriving church family we are today, our story is a testimony to God's faithfulness. Yet we believe our greatest days are still ahead — and there is a place for you in the story.
