Grace Bible Church was founded in
1876 as the Cumberland Presbyterian
Church and later renamed the First Presbyterian
Church. It was the first Presbyterian church
in California and the first Protestant church
on the Central Coast. In 1980 it changed names
to Grace Bible Church and remained an independent
church until joining the Evangelical Free Church in 1988.

The Evangelical
Free Church of America is one of
the fastest growing and most respected denominations
in the country. It is known for its commitment
to the Scriptures, for allowing diversity on
minor issues while maintaining unity on major
issues, for a strong missions concern, and for
granting to each local church complete freedom
(hence "Free Church") to govern itself.
Grace Bible Church presently ministers to just
over 1200 people with a membership of about
635. Our ministries seek to bring encouragement
and spiritual growth to every age group
in our community. Our many small
group ministries continue to expand to meet
the ever developing needs of the church body.
