Humanly speaking, our church had its conception in the mind of Pastor Bob Vandermey of the Grand Island Bible Presbyterian Church. Under "Pastor Bob's" leadership, that church established "The Armor Bible Presbyterian Church" as a branch church starting on March 9, 1969.

The little group began to meet in the home of Don and Joan Fakler. In 1970 they moved to the "storefront" building that is now the Armor Liquor Store next to Hoak's Armor Inn. The church grew slowly under the care of the Grand Island Church. In 1971 the land on which our church now stands was purchased, along with a parsonage. In 1972 the first pastor, Paul Foster, was called. The church grew and was soon meeting in the Armor Fire Hall.
