Our congregation began in June of 1893 when some of Olds’ pioneer families were in search of a faith community. The congregation initially met several locations around the Olds area. In the early 1900’s the first Church building was erected and was destroyed by fire in August of 1956. Not to be deterred, the congregation took on some loans and on November 3, 1957 the first service in the current building was held. The faithfulness of the congregation and its many fine ministers and most importantly, the guidance of our Lord and Saviour has kept our congregation vibrant for over 120 years.

We are located at 5038-49 Street in downtown, Olds, Alberta. Being a rural community we have a strong farm background, but find ourselves centrally located between major centers and within an hours drive of the Rocky Mountains. Our region is diverse with oil and gas, forestry, farming and Olds is home to Olds College.
