About this church
East Chain Evangelical Free Church meets at 507 280th Avenue near Granada. Sunday starts informally with coffee and doughnuts at 9:00 a.m., followed by Sunday School for all ages at 9:30 and worship at 10:30. The current church calendar repeats that three-part sequence. During its announced summer season, worship may move outdoors for “Church on the Lawn,” so checking the homepage or calendar is sensible when weather or a seasonal guest speaker could affect the setting.
Founded in 1892, the congregation summarizes its mission as loving God, loving others, and making disciples of Jesus Christ. Nursery care covers infants through age two during Sunday School and through age three during worship; Sunday classes serve children through fifth grade, and Children's Church for ages three to five follows the worship portion of the service. The Depot gives preschool through fifth grade a Wednesday program with an optional 5:30 meal and activities from 6:00 to 7:30. Middle-school students meet Wednesdays during the school year, while high-school students meet Sunday evenings. East Chain therefore combines a traditional rural-church morning rhythm with unusually detailed age-specific weekday programming and a seasonal outdoor-worship option.
