Immanuel began as a small Swedish congregation in Missoula in October 1898. For over a century, God has blessed us with growth in both numbers and facilities.  We have moved from a small church on Alder Street to our present facility on South Avenue.

The Holy Spirit has led us to strive to reach our vision:

Immanuel is called to be a caring, compassionate and diverse congregation, that is spiritually nourished through Jesus Christ, and reaches out the community at large.

…. and to live our mission:

Share the love of Christ with All!
