Congregation History

Founded in May 1959. The first buildings in our campus style complex on Blue Ridge Road were completed in 1964. Our membership is approximately 310, drawing from families and individuals with diverse backgrounds and interests who live in Raleigh, Cary and Wake County areas.

Denominational History

The Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) was founded in the early 1800s in the United States. Seeking to move beyond denominational disagreements, the founders envisioned a united church of Jesus Christ modeled on the New Testament.

Disciples Today

Today the nearly 3,800 congregations that comprise the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) still share these characteristics:

• Each congregation is self-governing and calls its own pastor.
• Worship services may be formal or informal, and include lay women and men in leadership.
• Open discussion of issues is encouraged. Diversity of opinion is common
• We are growing in racial and ethnic diversity.
