About Christ Church at Grove Farm

Christ Church at Grove Farm is an evangelical non-denominational church with roots in the Anglican tradition. Our Statement of Faith is based upon the Apostles’ Creed, the Nicene Creed, and the 39 Articles of Religion. We offer traditional/blended and modern styles of worship. Though our services are different in style, they are biblically-based and similar in substance. We have a vibrant congregation who worships together both in person and via livestream.

We are a church driven by the Gospel, with a vision to call our world to Christ. We want to be faithful followers of Christ, continuing to grow spiritually throughout our lives. This springs from our high view of Scripture; its primacy in our pulpit and throughout our ministries.

As a family-focused church, we offer something for everyone. Christ Church is a place of family, community, and hope. A place to find help and healing. We don’t claim to have all the answers. We do claim to know the One who does.

Located on 48 acres in the suburban North Hills, our campus (including a pond) allows us to offer activities for the whole family.
