Visiting for the first time?
Connecting with a new community can be scary. It's a little less that way when you think of us as believers and seekers from all walks of life.

No one will question your beliefs, or, to be honest, your un-beliefs. Just come on in and give us a test drive.
We're easy to find.
The church is on the northwest corner of Prairie and Graceland Avenues in Des Plaines.


Live streaming every Sunday at 10 a.m.
Who Is My Neighbor?
“Love your neighbor” is one of Jesus’ most famous teachings, but it begs the question: “Who is my neighbor?” This powerful video gives us Jesus’ answer to that question, and calls us to obedience.
FOR YOU:
Our world needs help. Would you join us in Missions? (It's fun!)
A free dinner for anyone who is hungry, every Monday. Bessie's Table.
Take a break. We've got your back. Mom's Day Out.
We fight hunger in Des Plaines kids with Community Backpacks.
