The Story of The Father’s House

This stands as a powerful illustration of God’s faithfulness, provision and grace. Since 2002, God has taken our story and transformed it into a way of telling His story. We sensed God changing the character of the church to a House of worship, prayer and a place to belong for all people. The church steadily grew from just over a hundred people to thousands over the years.

A whole new world opened in 2005 when we started live streaming our services to an expansive online audience both in the USA and abroad. In 2008 we moved to our new building at 715 Paul Road. In 2009, we launched our Downtown Campus, now our Life Center; an expression of the heart of our church within the local community. Today it’s a place where people from all walks of life can find food, acceptance, and support. Many of our friends and neighbors live below the poverty line, are struggling to put food on their tables, or are simply going through a tough season. Our Food Pantry is a constant to hundreds of individuals and families.

We are building a house of faith that empowers people to live out the mission of Jesus

Our Lead Pastors

Pierre and Marlize du Plessis are from Johannesburg South Africa. They came to America in 1999 with six suitcases and a dream. Throughout the past 23 years they have been living out that dream at The Father’s House. Whether it is preaching dynamic messages, hosting incredible experiences or just sitting across the table from you and your family, the du Plessis’ understand the joy of connecting with people.
