The current church building, located on Ralph Rogers Road, was built in 1995 and later expanded in 2006 to include a 1,200-seat sanctuary and a family life center. The church was previously located in facilities on 8th St. and Spring Ave. and, before that, 12th St. and Dakota Ave. The church changed its name to Central Baptist Church in 1920 and Swedish language services were dropped in 1925.[1] In 2016, the church changed its name to Central Church but remains associated with Converge International.
