Ellerslie is made up of a team of people passionate about seeing lives transformed and Jesus proclaimed in South Edmonton!

Ellerslie is a church with a rich heritage and a bright future. The church leadership is aligned in its vision to make disciples who love God, love people, and serve the world. Since its founding over 75 years ago, Ellerslie has grown from a small fellowship of believers to an influential church that has an active international and local cross-cultural mission and is a leader in its denomination, the Baptist General Conference of Canada.

Beyond a rich heritage of Christian mission, Ellerslie today has a vibrant ministry among the many young and growing families in its community. The church has a robust online presence and holds worship services in English and Mandarin, and hosts a Farsi language service conducted by local mission partners.

Blessed with reliable finances, Ellerslie now is planning for the next chapter in its history. Given our heritage, strategic location, and current organizational strength, the church is uniquely positioned to be a prevailing church in a fast-growing region that has few expressions of Christian worship.
