The congregation has been affiliated with the Conservative Mennonite Churches of Ontario (1960-78), Fellowship Churches (1978-?) and before 1995 became an Unaffiliated Mennonite Church. The language of worship is English.
The congregation is located on Hamilton Road in New Hamburg, near the intersection with Highway 7&8. Bishop Oman Bauman served as congregational leader in 2004.
