A Place Of Grace

SonCoast Christian Ministries was founded by Chris Cowen in 1994 and began meeting at Meadows Park in Boca Raton. On Sunday, August 6, 1994, the first official worship service as a church was held in the gymnasium of the Boca Raton Elementary School.

In July of 1996, SonCoast was in need of additional space for the growing congregation. Creative thinking and God's provision prevailed! Renovation of an auto mechanic's garage and warehouse directly across the street from the school's gym provided the ministry with an attractive facility for proclaiming God's message of love, forgiveness, redemption, and restoration.

On February 9, 2000, SonCoast Christian Ministries and Evangel Baptist Church merged to become SonCoast Community Church. With renewed energy and a heart to reach out to the local community, this new body began its ministry in the current location. SonCoast Community Church is affiliated with the North American Baptist Conference.

Since September 2007, SonCoast has been shepherded by Dr. Mitch Dillon. With his wife, Faith, Mitch has pointed the flock toward a deeper understanding of God’s unconditional love.
