The Niagara Falls Christian Fellowship began services in 1975 in rented facilities.  These facilities and family homes served as meeting places.  In 1978 the congregation was officially organized with 16 charter members. The first building was occupied in 1979 with a subsequent building program in 1990. Willie Baerg is considered the founding leader of the group. The congregation originated through outreach by the Ontario Conference of Mennonite Brethren Churches.
