HISTORY OF THE CONGREGATION

Our church began in 1961 as a storefront mission on North Elm Street. In the 70’s we occupied a small church building on Penacook Street. Believing God had something different in mind for us, the building was sold in 1979, and we purchased land here on Wellington Road. Our Church met at Smyth Road School until 1985 when we erected a simple church building on our current site. The 250 seat East Auditorium was completed in 1992. The numerical growth of our congregation was accelerated in 1997 when we adopted the Purpose Driven Model of church health, and on Easter Sunday 2005 we were blessed to welcome our families, friends and guests into our new 650-seat worship auditorium. Frank Reynolds has served our congregation as Senior Pastor since 1980. Our regular Sunday attendance has grown from 60 to 1,400 during his 25-year ministry.

Restoration House Ministries
Manchester Christian Church began her partnership with Restoration House Ministries in 1995. The Restoration House facilities are located behind our church building. This ministry provides college-level Christian education, houses student interns, and coordinates church planting efforts in New England. To date, we have been partners in ten exciting New England church plants.
