The small group of worshipers who would become the Sierra Vista Servants of Christ Church, began with four families and one widow who met to worship in each others homes beginning in January of 2000. The group grew to around twenty and incorporated as a church in May of 2000. The first meeting place outside of private residences was in the SSVEC conference room. The group met there for several months and then became too big for theconference room. From October of 2000 to February of 2007 the Servants of Christ rented and shared facilities with the Immanuel Lutheran Church. They were very gracious hosts and our Church grew spiritually and in numbers. For our congregation's first 2 years we had no pastor but were delivered the Word of God by an Elder among us who was very strong in the Bible, Elder Jim Bideaux. Then Pastor Hong-il Lim came from College Station Texas to be our Pastor in August of 2002. For six years, we grew spiritually through his ministry and through the loving attention of Mrs. Lim and we have watched their three daughters grow up. Grace, Mary and Esther have been our musicians. Their music has brightened our services, filled our hearts, and I am sure, been a blessing to God's ears. In 2006, we purchased this building. It was a residence but when we looked at it, we did not see a residence, we saw a church. God has blessed us so much that after the purchase and all the months of renovation we are able to put this building into the service of Jesus Christ our Lord with no lien, no mortgage. We dedicated this building to the service of our Lord, this was also the day on which we installed two devoted ladies as Elderesses in our congregation, we are still filled with joy to this day. We praise God and we lift up glory and honor to his name. We lift our thanks to Him for all the blessings he has poured out upon us.
