We are a historic church with prairie roots first planted in Lake County in 1869. At the same time, we are a church of innovation, shaped by the powerful ways God is transforming long-standing institutions into communities of care and creativity.

Our vibrant heritage connects us by faith with Christians around the world as part of the largest network of Presbyterian churches in the United States. We look forward to welcoming your story into ours as together we share the good news of God’s wondrous love for all.

We are a joyful people, sharing life in Christ and inspiring others along the way. For more than 150 years, we’ve nurtured service, meaningful work, and spiritual growth for people of all ages and backgrounds.

Together—and as individuals—we live, laugh, and love in faith, always praying, “O God, may our life together inspire the world.”
