The congregation began services in 1969, and formally organized in 1970. Walter Klaassen and John W. Miller are considered the founding leaders of the group. The congregation originated through outreach by Mennonite and non-Mennonite individuals. The group is considered to be a congregation, but in effect are a cluster of individual house churches with a central meeting place where they gather in alternate weeks. Alex Molnar is chairperson of the Pastoral Care Committee. In 1988 there were four house churches.
