Our history

A young church with old roots

The congregation is young. The faith it confesses is not. Christ Church Leavenworth stands in a line that runs through the Reformation back to the apostles.

  1. 2020

    Planted as a mission church

    Christ Church Leavenworth was founded as a mission church of Christ Church Twin Cities in Excelsior, Minnesota. A handful of families began gathering for Lord’s Day worship in Leavenworth.

  2. 2023

    Particularized

    The congregation was received as a full member of the Tyndale Presbytery of the Communion of Reformed Evangelical Churches, standing on its own feet with its own session of elders.

  3. Today

    Worshipping on Michigan Street

    We gather every Lord’s Day at 10:30 AM in the Shiloh Seventh-day Adventist church building at 601 Michigan Street: worship, the Table, and a meal together nearly every week.

Our mother church is Christ Church Twin Cities, and our session still includes two of her elders serving pro-tem. That is how churches in our communion plant: with real oversight, until the new congregation can carry its own weight.

The next chapter gets written on Sundays
