Faith Chapel exists to help people follow Jesus, be transformed by Jesus and be on mission with Jesus. We are passionate about people far from God, and we will never stop caring about those outside the walls of the church.

Faith Chapel is located in Billings, Montana, the largest and one of the fastest-growing cities in Montana. Billings offers city living with scenic Montana landscapes and plentiful recreational opportunities just a short drive away. As Montana’s largest city, Billings has a robust and diverse economy with sectors in healthcare, energy, agriculture and education, and is a top-rated community for families and young professionals. Housing costs remain reasonable compared to other Western cities, and you’ll experience four distinct seasons with over 220 sunny days annually. What truly sets Billings apart is its welcoming community spirit—where neighbors become friends, and the pace of life allows for genuine work-life balance that’s increasingly rare in today’s world.
