Our Vision
God calls us to be followers of Jesus Christ, and by the power of the Holy Spirit to grow as communities of grace, joy and peace so that God's healing and hope flow through us to the world.
Our Mission
Leading people in a growing relationship with Jesus Christ in the context of a loving community.
Foothills Mennonite Church is located in northwest Calgary, Alberta. We worship together in a place which for generations has been cared for by the peoples of the Blackfoot Confederacy, Tsuut’ina First Nation and Stoney Nakoda Peoples, together with Métis Nation within Alberta, Region 4, 5 and 6. As our name suggests, we are in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains and we are grateful to live, work, play and worship in this place.
Land Acknowledgement
Foothills Mennonite Church began in 1956 as North Hill Mennonite Mission. It was a place for young, English-speaking Mennonites to worship and share life together. The first service was held in the basement of a family home on January 8, 1956. The congregation flourished and ten years later, in 1966, the current building was completed, and the name was updated to Foothills Mennonite Church. History
