Engage Embrace Encourage

WELCOME TO OUR CHURCH

Ford Street Church is for all people. We invite everyone to be a part of our church community and to share in our Christian faith. We embrace differences and support each individual’s story as we stand united in Jesus Christ. Being part of our church doesn’t mean that we all think or act the same, it means we encourage each other as we grow in our faith. In our ever-changing world, we strive for Ford Street to be a constant source of comfort and connection for all who need it.

More About Us

Open Now "Gathering Grounds"

Gathering grounds is a place for small groups to grow and flourish in the pursuit of God’s love in Jesus Christ through study, conversation, and relationship.

Gathering Grounds funds ministries of compassion (such as the Lapel Food Pantry or the Lapel Elementary Supply Store which provides back-to-school supplies for children enrolled in free and reduced lunch programs) and to convene conversations in our community pertaining to justice (with a special focus on racism, sexism, and addiction).
