Our Church Story

About two hundred years ago a group of Christians, bewildered by so many religious denominations, shared a vision of the Church restored to a more pure and visible unity. Choosing to be known by the name "Christian" only, they committed themselves to open fellowship and a confidence in the gospel to overcome human divisions in the body of Christ. This small but vibrant movement became known as the "Christian Church" and eventually established a foothold in Canada in the early 1800s. The first Christian Church in Canada was established in Keswick, Ontario in 1821 and is a dynamic fellowship even to this day. Stouffville Christian Church joined this vibrant movement in 1903.

We were honored by the town of Whitchurch Stouffville to have our building designated a heritage site in recognition of our heritage and service to the town. We have always taken pride in the role we played in the history of this town. Our byline, "In essentials, unity; in non-essentials, diversity; in all things, charity" speaks of our openness in welcoming all who choose to fellowship with us and share our unique and time honoured journey to Jesus Christ. Each Sunday at worship we anticipate receiving deeper insights into God's loving intentions for this community, for his Church, and for each of our lives.
