The congregation has its background in the revival movement that emerged in Sweden during the second half of the 19th century. Then both a Baptist Church and a Mission Church were formed in Skollersta. The Baptist Church had its activities in Testa Chapel and the Mission Church in Kuvesta Mission House. In the early 1970's, the community between the congregations deepened in various ways. This led to the building of a common church in Skollersta community in 1976, which at that time grew through extensive residential development. The church was named Larslundskyrkan after a previous farm name nearby.
