Kitsilano Christian Community ("Kits") began in a coffee house on Nelson Street during the Fall of 1988 with a group of individuals interested in a "different" sort of church for the Kitsilano neighbourhood.  While "Kits" is a church committed to community involvement and diversity of expression, our roots go back to First Baptist Church in downtown Vancouver, making us a part of a rich 112-year tradition in this city.

Since our beginning midst coffee grounds, we have met in many places including the auditorium of Regent College, and in business space next to the former Ron Zalko's Fitness Center at the corner of Fourth Avenue and Stephens Street.

Now, we are one of two congregations who meet in a more traditional church building at 16th and Pine.  As we work together with Fairview Baptist, an established church committed to social justice and community work, we hope to better serve our neighborhood as we complement each other's work.

In particular "Kits", strives to provide a warm welcome to people who are reconnecting with their Christian faith after a long time away, or are attracted to Jesus Christ, but who may have had negative experiences with Christians or "organized religion".

What else can we say about who we are?  Well, probably the best way to find out who we are is to come and spend some time with us.  But to give you a taste of who we are and what we believe, check out the pages below.
