Our Story...
Our story began in the early 1900s, sparked by the Pentecostal Revival that swept through the early 20th century. A small group of Norwegian immigrants gathered in humble house meetings, united by a shared faith and a passion for worship. These gatherings soon outgrew homes, and in 1926, the community formalized as a church, adopting the name The Scandinavian Mission which ministered to their community in their native Norwegian language.
In 1933, they expand their outreach to Tacoma’s English-speaking community while cherishing their Scandinavian roots. By 1968, a merger with another local assembly fueled a bold vision: a new church built by the congregation’s own hands called Bethel Christian Assembly.
In 1999, continued growth led to building a new facility on 112th Street, and with it, a new name: Church For All Nations. From those early house meetings to today’s vibrant community, our church was born in the fires of revival; refined by missions, healing, worship, and prayer. Strong Bible teaching has nurtured generations of disciples and leaders, creating a legacy of faith that works through love.
