about us

Galen and Danette Gingerich have spent over 45 years on a journey of faith, discovery, and transformation. Their story isn’t just about leading a local church—it’s about seeking God’s heart with courage, humility, and a willingness to keep growing.

A Lifelong Journey of Faith

Raised in a Mennonite tradition that emphasized simplicity, peace, and Jesus’ teachings, Galen always sensed there was more to the Christian life. His parents' openness to fresh perspectives shaped him early on, and that spirit of discovery has guided him ever since. Galen’s journey has been marked by encounters with the Holy Spirit—healing, prophecy, and Spirit-led worship—alongside deep dives into scripture, church history, and theology. He explored the gifts of the Spirit firsthand, even when it meant walking an unconventional path.

Leading a Community of Faith

In the late 1970s, Galen helped start a small Spirit-led group that grew into a vibrant community focused on intimacy with God, Spirit-led worship, and a fearless pursuit of truth. Their community experienced powerful seasons of prophetic worship, healing, and spiritual renewal that has impacted thousands. Through it all, they emphasized transformation over rigid dogma—inviting people to encounter God personally.

A Heart for Restoration

In recent years, Galen and Danette found fresh clarity through the writings of the Early Eastern Church Fathers, gaining a deeper understanding of God’s heart for humanity. Their faith is anchored in a simple truth: that God’s love is all-embracing, all-encompassing, and that through Christ, all things are reconciled. No one is separated from Christ, for all are included in the eternal, self-giving love of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. This hope—that Christ will make all things new—is the foundation of their message and mission.

Join the Journey

Galen and Danette continue to walk in “discovery mode”—living with humility and boldness as they teach, serve, and share the message of God’s transforming love. Their journey now finds expression in a local church community where worship, Scripture, fellowship, and the presence of the Holy Spirit form the heartbeat of life together.
