About this church
Renton Christian Center meets Sunday at 10 a.m. in person and on Facebook Live. The Foursquare congregation describes worship as energetic and connected to service, community, and a welcome for people from different walks of life. Sunday School serves children from nursery through middle-school ages. Older elementary children begin in the adult worship service and are dismissed to class afterward; on the third Sunday of each month, Family Sunday keeps all children in worship before Sunday School. That sequence is useful for families planning a first check-in.
The church was planted in Fairwood in 1982 by Alex and Pam Ohlsen with a team of nine people. It met at Fairwood Elementary School until the present Old Petrovitsky Road facility opened in 1988 and now reports about 150 people on a typical Sunday. As schools and housing grew around what had been a rural location, the congregation developed long-term relationships with nearby students, families, and neighborhoods rather than waiting for residents to enter the building. Mission support also extends internationally through prayer, encouragement, and finances for long-term missionaries. Staff roles include prayer and care, community life, youth, and worship, reinforcing an emphasis on personal wholeness, multigenerational relationships, and practical service alongside the weekly gathering.
