Khesed Church

Khesed Church (formerly spelled Kessid) was started from scratch without any outside support or resources. With only a handful of families we prayed and sought the Holy Spirit’s guidance. He impressed upon us that if we based everything we did in God’s Khesed love, scripture, and the Spirit’s leading, that we would be building a God-honoring ministry.

So a launch plan was developed, God provided the funds we needed, and we continued to base our ministry upon the values of love, Scripture, and Spirit.

After a successful soft launch, we officially opened our doors at The Firstenburg Center in Vancouver, Washington, on October 4, 2009. Over the years, we moved to several locations, including a health club, Endeavour Elementary School, and Clark College. Throughout this time, we had been diligently looking for a permanent church home, but we couldn’t find the right fit.

We continued to faithfully set up and tear down our services weekly, a feat that would eventually grow to take over 140 volunteers every weekend.

In 2017, we held a baptism service at Main Street Church. Little did we know they had been praying about giving their building away to the next generation. Through much prayer, meeting, and promptings of the Holy Spirit, their congregation unanimously voted “Yes” to become part of Khesed and gift their building to us! Along with a wonderful new church family, Khesed was given a debt-free church building with over 30,000 sq. ft. in Uptown Vancouver! After an extensive remodel, we began to hold in-person services in our new church home, Khesed Uptown, 111 W 28th St., Vancouver, WA 98660.

Then, in January of 2020, Khesed was approached by another church family here in Clark County, Columbia Christian Church, located across from Columbia River High School.

Through the Holy Spirit’s leading, we were excited to announce a merger with another church family and the new location of Khesed Columbia Campus, 907 NW 99th St., Vancouver, WA 98665!

Khesed runs weekly services out of both locations with live teaching, including online live streams.
