In 1926 non-denominational evangelistic meetings were held in a former United Brethren church building located at Hitesville, a small community 5 miles north of Aplington. Many in the surrounding area professed faith in Christ for their personal salvation. They desired to gather together regularly as an assembly of Christians according to the pattern giving in the New Testament of the Bible and reach out to others by preaching the gospel of the grace of God. The building was purchased in 1927. Over the years it has been enlarged and made handicap accessible.

In addition to the regular meetings of the assembly, we have special gospel series, missionary reports, visiting speakers and our yearly fall Bible Conference.
