Our History
Established in 1896, we are a small, family-friendly congregation. We are dedicated to the Mission of the Christian Church: to be and to share the Good News of Jesus Christ, witnessing, loving and serving from our doorsteps "to the ends of the earth." (Acts 1:8)
What is Elpis?
We take our name from a word found repeatedly in the New Testament that translates to "expectant hope." We beleive that's an amazing way to describe our faith in the Lord.
Disciples of Christ
