Thinking of moving to the area?  You should!  Iowa City is a vibrant, cultured university town nestled among the gently rolling hills of Eastern Iowa, and close to the cozy, traditionally Mennonite community of Kalona, Iowa. Home to the University of Iowa, Iowa City is a small town with big city amenities, including a rich arts and entertainment environment and excellent health care. We have excellent school systems and a strong, diverse economy. 

Iowa City is the only North American city named by UNESCO as a City of Literature. Recently, Iowa City was ranked #4 in the top ten of Livability.com's Top 100 Best Places to Live in 2019, but that's only one of the "Best of" lists we've landed on-- there are many more!    

Want to read the details and see some statistics? You got it! 

Did we convince you?  A number of our church members own rental properties or are realtors and would be happy to assist in your home search.  We can also recommend members of our congregation who provide other services such as bankers, lawyers, plumbers, home builders, or physicians!  Please let us know how we can help!

If you would rather talk to a real person, you are welcome to call or stop by the office. A pastor would be happy to speak with you about our congregation or answer any questions you might have.
