The History of ACC
Where We're From
Assiniboia-Charleswood Community Church is a non-denominational
local church. The fellowship began as Assiniboia Community Church
in 1978 when some families
had the desire to worship in their own community in the southwest area
of Winnipeg. The emphasis
was to be on consecutive teaching from the Bible, developing
personal relationships, and helping families.
The church continued to meet in rented facilities until Charleswood
Baptist Church graciously made their building available and asked
to join with ACC. The church was renamed Assiniboia-Charleswood Community
Church and the congregation moved into the building on
Charleswood Road in 1991. Since then, the church has grown. A
Significant expansion of the facility was completed in 2002 with
thje addition of a new sanctuary, nursery, kitchen and foyer
bringing the building to its present size.
Today, the original purpose has not changed as people come from a variety of
religious and non-religious backgrounds to worship Jesus
Christ as Saviour and Lord to love and serve one another.
