Spreading God's Word

SINCE 1963

Libby Christian Church started over 50 years ago in a small Grange Hall building where they had to build a fire before the people arrived so the church would be warm for Sunday morning worship. Before too long though, they were able to build a church that grew and became even more a part of the community. This building was on Utah Avenue where the new Cabinet Peaks Medical Center is now located. By 2004 we had outgrown that building as well, so a new church was built on our current location at 100 Kootenai River Road. 

Libby Christian Church has a history filled with wonderful servants who loved God and one another.

Who We Are - Our Vision

Libby Christian Church has been around for over 50 years and has a long history, but we aren't stuck there. Instead, we are making new memories all the time. But I think what we would all want you to know about us is this...we are a family of believers that are mutually in love with Jesus Christ and our lives are changed because of Him. We are waiting expectantly for Jesus to return, and have no desire to wait idly by, just passing time until He does. As a family we are doing all we can to tell others about what Jesus can do for them.  We are watching as new names are regularly added to God's Kingdom and love the new stories that are being added to those that make up this family of believers in Libby, Montana. 


If we can be of any service to you or your family, please contact us. Call, email or stop by the office - we look forward to meeting you.
