Horizon Community Church

Horizon Community Church started in 1975 at the Ramada Inn (now the Nyberg Woods Mall) in Tualatin, Oregon. The pioneering pastors had a vision for it to be a Bible-based, Spirit-led, genuine, authentic group of Christ-followers who would reach out to others with the love of God. God led the people to purchase the Sagert Farm in Tualatin, still the location of our elementary and middle school. Here they took an existing barn and remodeled it to become the first building for the church. Through the years, the church body added on to that building and started an elementary school as the Spirit of God made it obvious that this church would lead in the community by providing a safe place for children to attend school. The growing fellowship would soon start on another adventure to secure land at another location and build again. God spoke to our pastor first and said that he wanted to, "Build a great high school to glorify My name." This new endeavor that the Lord sent Horizon Community Church on would bring about many remarkable miracles as the Lord brought provision to validate His will. Today we have a second, larger campus where our church, high school and pre-school/daycare meet, located on forty acres on Boones Ferry Road in Tualatin. The story of Horizon Community Church is a great God adventure, in which the people have trusted God and followed by faith in an effort to help others become followers of Jesus.
