In 2001, Prairie Heights held its “grand opening” service at the former Doublewood Inn, now the Ramada, with more than 200 in attendance.
It was a temporary home, with the church holding mobile services in the years to follow at community spots, including the Red River Zoo, Fargo Air Museum and the Hjemkomst Center in Moorhead.
In 2007, the church moved to the FargoDome, taking over one conference room after another as membership and programming grew, with a capital campaign and facility of its own in the works.
Just before Christmas in 2016, Prairie Heights moved to its current location, with children’s play area, hangout spaces for middle and high schoolers and a coffee shop.
In each spot occupied, they left out traditions that some people said had kept them away from church, including formal sermons and hymns and a need to “dress up.”
As an alternative, they embraced a culture of casual dress and contemporary Christian music, even serving popcorn during services.

From Prairie Heights' wed-site "Prairie Heights believes every person deserves to experience the love of Jesus Christ so we focus on serving our community with love and no strings attached.
It is our commitment that this happens on an organizational and a personal level. When we become aware of community needs that focus on Cars, Kids and Marriages; we meet those needs. When I see a neighbor in need, I meet that need to the best of my ability. Together, let’s meet the needs of our community, with no strings attached."
