Grandin Mennonite Church (Grandin, Missouri, USA)
The Grandin Conservative Mennonite Church near Grandin, Missouri, USA, began in 1969, after a number of families from Plain City, Ohio and other locations chose to begin a conservative Mennonite congregation in Missouri.
Several years later the new congregation began an outreach in the Farmington, New Mexico area that developed into the Farmington Mennonite Church and the Lamp and Light Ministries among the Navajo People.
Sometime in the late 1990s or early 2000s, the congregation dropped "Conservative" from its name and became the Grandin Mennonite Church.
In 2005 the congregation planted the Plad Mennonite Church in Plad, Missouri.
In 2018 the church had 76 members and was a member of the Nationwide Fellowship Churches. The ministerial team included Ministers Joseph Good and Jerry Weaver and Deacon Llewellyn Miller.
