ABOUT US

OUR STORY

College Church is a diverse, interdenominational Protestant church in the heart of the Pioneer Valley, just steps from downtown Northampton.

 

Since 1972, College Church has sought to “Know Christ and Make Him Known” through biblical preaching, local outreach, church planting and global missions.

 

In recent years, College Church has experienced an awakening through a renewed commitment to prayer and living out the gospel in every aspect of life and community.

 

In June of 2015, College Church called Bill Hodgeman to serve as her fourth Senior Pastor. Bill looks forward to continuing the legacy of biblical preaching, and helping College Church to fulfill its mission to love God and love others.
