Campus Ministries

Today’s college students are the future leaders of our communities, our nation, and the world. Our church serves several college campus ministries throughout the Chicago area. Each campus offers unique programs that support students in laying strong foundations of faith and growing as disciples of Jesus.

High School (Youth Ministry)

Youth and High School Ministry is vital because these are the years when students are forming their identity, values, and vision for life. Through Bible study, prayer, fellowship, and discipleship, we help young people build a strong spiritual foundation that will guide them not only through the challenges of high school but also into college and beyond. By equipping students to encounter Christ personally and grow as His disciples, we prepare the next generation of leaders who will advance God’s kingdom in their schools, communities, and the world.

Children's Ministry

Children's Ministry

Building a strong spiritual foundation for children is vital. Our church offers dynamic year-round programs, including conferences, worship and praise, grade-level Bible discussions, park play days, Easter and Christmas celebrations, and much more. We warmly invite you to be part of our Children’s Ministry.
Personal Devotions

Personal Devotions

Personal devotion is critical in the Christian life because it is through daily fellowship with God that we grow in faith, strength, and direction for our lives. In today’s busy and distracting world, setting aside time for God’s Word and prayer allows us to hear His voice, receive His guidance, and be renewed in spirit. Personal devotion is not only about individual growth, but it also prepares us to encourage others and to live as Christ’s witnesses in our families, schools, workplaces, and communities. At our church, we nurture this vital habit through early morning Daily Bread devotions, group and one-to-one Bible studies, prayer seminars, testimony sharing, and workshops—all designed to help believers build a deep and personal relationship with God.

World Mission

World mission is one of the most vital callings of our generation, as Jesus commands us to make disciples of all nations (Matthew 28:19). In a world deeply in need of hope and truth, sharing the gospel across cultures and borders is central to God’s redemptive work. Our church participates in this mission by supporting global ministries financially, sending out missionaries, and hosting monthly world mission gatherings where we pray, share insights, and encourage one another to keep a clear vision for God’s world salvation plan. Through these efforts, we seek to raise up workers for the harvest and join in God’s heart for all peoples.

Music Ministries

Music Ministries

Music is a powerful gift from God that lifts hearts, unites believers, and draws us closer to His presence. In our church, music is not only an expression of worship but also a vital ministry that strengthens the community of faith and inspires others to glorify God. Through our orchestra, praise and worship team, chorus, and various music groups, members are encouraged to use their God-given talents to serve Him and build up the body of Christ. Whether through instruments or voices, we offer our music as a living sacrifice of praise, creating an atmosphere where God’s Word and Spirit can deeply move His people.

Church-wide Indoor & Outdoor Activities & Conferences

Christian fellowship is an essential part of spiritual growth, as it nurtures love, unity, and encouragement within the body of Christ. Sharing life together allows believers to strengthen one another in faith, bear each other’s burdens, and celebrate God’s goodness as one family. Our church values these relationships and provides year-round opportunities to connect through outdoor picnics, retreats, conferences, Mother’s Day celebrations, and other gatherings. These activities create joyful spaces for building friendships, deepening faith, and fostering a strong community where Christ’s love is lived out daily.

We praise and worship God, for He is good! He has filled our hearts with joy and His light. Praise be to God—the King of the universe, our loving Father and gracious King. He looks upon the brokenhearted and those with a contrite spirit. He dwells among us and pours out His blessings and promises—because He is always good!
