Meet Cypress Church

In 1919, something started growing in the hearts of a handful of friends that gave birth to something new in the fall of 1920 in downtown Columbus, Ohio, near Cypress Ave. Today, Cypress Church is over 100 years strong and counting. We are ONE church in many locations. Together, we are committed to reaching the next community, the next campus, the next family, the next student, the next child, and the next person for Christ. Everything we do is filtered through our focus on loving people and walking with them as they come to know & experience God in a life-changing way, Find Friends and Freedom in a life-giving community, and discover their purpose to Make a Difference and fulfill the full life for which God created them.
