The story of Greenborough began in 1951 when God planted a dream in the mind of one person. From that dream, God formed a church, that would connect the Greenbrook and Beechborough neighbourhood.  Worship services were held in the gymnasium of C E Webster Public School on Keele Street from February of 1951 until 1954. During that time the present site of 2000 Keele Street, (on the corner of Keele Street and Greenbrook Drive) was purchased for the sum of $3,750.  Work began on the church building and by the grace of God it was completed in 1957 under the pastorate of  Rev. C A Armstrong who served as pastor of our church until 1960.  The name of our church is an amalgamation of two neighborhoods (Greenbrook and Beachborough)  hence, the idea of unity through comm-unity, in diversity, a family church.

Throughout the years the church's strength has always been in embodying the story of God through teaching in word and participating in the mission of God. The Sunday School was not merely an addition to the life of the church but its very centre. The emphasis on Christian education ensured that those children who were present, learned who we are, received instruction in the way of faith, love and hope, and took their place, when it was time, in the various ministries of our church.  

​​

A "community church" model was intentional in order to highlight that Christian unity is revealed in diversity, strengthening and sustaining the church. The various traditions and expressions of faith serve to strengthen our unity.  These traditions enrich the life of faith, revealing the love of God, just as the gifts of the Spirit to the church are diverse yet serve to build up the church to the glory of God.

Over the years, we have seen a lot of changes in our neighbourhood, yet the mission is the same, begun long ago: to work with God in the redemption of all creation.  Within this story, we have our story, and will continue to tell it.​​
