Our History
Open Door Church has been serving in American Canyon since early 1986. We started as a church plant in Vallejo in 1983-84.
When we moved to our current location to rent a building for services, American Canyon was an un-incorporated part of Napa County between Napa and Vallejo. We were thankful to have a gathering place to call home for this young church.
Greg Escher was the lead Pastor. Alan Brazell was his associate. As faithful men and women, like Ken and Debbie Sanders, Greg and Sue Straw and others shared a vision for this new church.
In the Summer of 1993, Greg and Val Escher moved on to Pastor another Open Door Church in Novato. Alan became the lead Pastor with Greg Straw and Ken Sanders serving as Elders.
God blessed us and the city. As the church grew, we were able to expand the use to other buildings on the property, eventually buying the land and buildings on Hwy 29 in January 2001.
