Moscow Community

Moscow is a thriving and diverse community of 25,000 located in the northern part of the state, about 90 miles southeast of Spokane, Washington. It is situated in the Palouse region, known for its wave-like rolling hills and its farming. Moscow and nearby Pullman, Washington, are rural agricultural communities that possess a cosmopolitan culture drawn by their respective universities. The local symphony performs just minutes from vast, quiet fields of wheat.

Several strong evangelical churches are situated in the Moscow area. The city is also home to Logos School, a well-known classical Christian school that serves students from kindergarten through 12th grade. Additionally, there is an active community of Christian homeschoolers. Students at Greyfriars Hall benefit from the support, fellowship, and hospitality provided by local Christian families and churches.
