Our Church History

In 1909 the Hessel community built its first school. It was here that the community began to center around the family. The first school teacher was Miss Hessel, daughter of the pioneer family for which the community was named. Miss Hessel was a Christian who had just graduated from teaching college. When she found out that the boys and girls did not have a Sunday School to attend, she started one in the "new" schoolhouse. That core group grew to about 30 and stayed there for many years.

Milestones

In the 30's the congregation moved to the community butcher shop and met in cars for classes.
In the 50's Meeker Hall and French Hall were built. In 2002, we moved into our new Worship Center.
Under the 38-year leadership of Pastor Ron Cundall who came in 1954, the church grew both spiritually and numerically. Pastor Ron stepped down from the role of senior pastor in 1992.
In 1992, Rich Cundall was installed as the senior pastor.
