ANAHEIM : Church Finally Has a Permanent Home

Count the Vineyard Christian Fellowship Church as one of the winners of the Cold War.
For years, the Anaheim congregation was forced to meet in a series of industrial warehouses and schools because it couldn’t afford a permanent home.

“I like to think of it as part of the peace dividend,” said Kevin Springer, the church’s associate pastor.
The church purchased the two-building, nearly 300,000-square-foot property on La Palma Avenue about a year ago. From the outside, the structure looks nondescript.
