About My Church Plant

Sevilla Chapel is a multi-ethnic bilingual church plant in the region of Niagara that exists to glorify God through worship, biblical evangelism and discipleship.

As an evangelical community, we are passionate about the proclamation of a gospel for all aspects of life, the growth of the church, and the faithful witness through relational and cultural engagement.

With 133,000 residents in St. Catharines and well over 14,000 Latinos in the region of Niagara, according to StatsCan, Sevilla Chapel seeks to be a welcoming multi-ethnic community where the truth and love of Christ is expressed.

NAMB Church Planting

Millions living in North America have not been reached with the gospel. But a new church makes change possible in an unreached neighborhood.
Send Network church planters immerse themselves in a community, learning the rhythms and culture as they establish relationships with the lost. A church plant grows out of the evangelism efforts of the planter and his core team.
