History of Grace Bible Church

 

​

History of Grace Bible Church of Coeur d’Alene, Idaho - 1975-Present

​​Grace Bible Church was formed in February 1975. The new congregation held its first meetings at the English Funeral Chapel in Coeur d’Alene, ID. The current building at 152 W Prairie Avenue in Hayden, ID, was purchased later that same year.

​

For many years, the church housed an Accelerated Christian Education school which, at its peak, hosted 150 students. The school was the model ACE school for the Pacific Northwest.

​

Additions to the original building included a two-story section with a sanctuary on the upper floor and a fellowship hall on the lower floor. The church also built a 5,000 sq ft gymnasium for activities and sports events.

​

The church has had seven pastors since its founding. The current pastor is Dr. Gene Speer, who was installed in August 2024.
