North Christian
Legacy Website
Thanks for stopping by. This website is dedicated to the legacy of our congregation’s ministry. Our former church building is currently closed and not open to visitors.
More Than a Building
On September 25, 1955, forty-three persons banded together in Christian love to organize North Christian Church. On September 2, 1962 the congregation held a groundbreaking ceremony. The first worship service in the new church took place on March 8, 1964. On July 16th, 2022 the congregation held a final “Celebration of Life” service and closed the church.
While Eero Saarinen’s architectural masterpiece became an important part of our story, it’s not the whole story. This website is dedicated to the vision, history, and ministry of the congregation of North Christian Church in Columbus, Indiana.
In the coming months, a legacy group will get to work telling our story here. For now, please enjoy some content from our old website!

Groundbreaking September 1962
