In January of 1989, a small group of 21 people met in the home of Dave and Sherry Barr in Yarmouth. Their meeting arose out of a desire to have a church where the word of God was preached faithfully and accurately. By the end of February, the church was legally constituted as Cape Cod Bible Fellowship. The church met at the Yarmouth Senior Center. In April, Jim Stewart was called as its first Pastor. Jim and Jan and their two boys returned to Cape Cod from California in June where he had been attending The Master’s Seminary. For the next 14 years Cape Cod Bible Fellowship met at the Senior Center for Sunday morning services, as well as at the Stewart’s home for evening and mid-week gatherings.

It was by God's grace that the church was able to purchase land and build a building in North Harwich. Their first service in that new building was in February of 2002. God in His providence saw fit to move Jim and Jan to Oklahoma in 2005. Pastor Lou Faustino took the pastorate until 2011. The church was very small and unable to provide for the Faustinos as their family had grown to five. Lou was offered a position off Cape and because Jim and Jan had returned to the Cape to care for Jan’s mom, Jim was able to once again take on the role of Pastor. In the interim the church had changed its name to Cape Cod Bible Church.

In anticipation of Pastor Stewart’s retirement, CCBC began looking for another man to fulfill the duties of Pastor. Mark Axelgard graduated from The Expositor’s Seminary in 2018. He became a candidate later that year and was called to the position. His first Sunday was in January 2019.

Over the past few years, God has added to our number and prospered CCBC. In May of 2025, CCBC was able to purchase the land adjacent to the church property, which would be necessary if the church were to grow to the point it needed to expand the building.

CCBC has been blessed by God with a sweet spirit of unity for nearly all of its existence. Psalm 119:1-2 speak of the blessings of God that He bestows on those who walk according to His word and who seek Him with all their heart. That has been the goal of CCBC from its beginning and the motive to please Him has been behind everything the church has sought to accomplish. God has blessed as a result.
