Established in 1951
"Little is much when God is in it,"
so testifies a church that began as a mission church [1954] in Chicago
by a determined Kentucky preacher with a desire to minister to his fellow Kentuckians
who had moved further North for work and better opportunities.
What started as a simple storefront-meeting place with a handful of people
soon grew and led to a newly built, suburban church with a much larger body and an outreach ministry.
This building, in which we meet, still stands as a visible testimony
to the devotion of many dearly departed saints,
but these Southern "strangers" established more than a solidly built building;
rather they served as a sending station to reach their "new" home community for Christ.
Over the years, various ministries and bus routes were started
to provide more opportunities to reach out into our community
and to continue to build a strong, local body of believers
who still meet together today!

GOD'S PLAN OF SALVATION
HERE IS WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW FROM GOD'S WORD
TO BE 100% FOR SURE THAT YOU WILL BE IN HEAVEN:
1. SITUATION
John 3:16
"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
ALL ARE LOVED SACRIFICIALLY - Realize that God loves everyone, including you.
2. SATURATION
Romans 3:23
"For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;"
ALL ARE GUILTY SPECIFICALLY - Realize that everyone is a sinner.
3. SEPARATION
Romans 6:23a
"For the wages of sin is death;..."
ALL WILL PAY DEARLY - Realize that sin has a price that must be paid.
4. SOLUTION
Romans 6:23b
"...but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."
ALL IS PAID COMPLETELY - Realize that Jesus Christ paid the price of everyone’s sin.
5. SALVATION
Romans 10:13
"For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."
ALL CAN HAVE ASSUREDLY - Repent of your sin and place your trust in and on Jesus Christ by specifically asking Him
to forgive you so that you may have eternal life.
How do I “call on the name of the Lord”
and receive this “gift of eternal life?”
Romans 10:9-10
9. That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus,
and shalt believe in thine heart
that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
10. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness;
and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
You can receive this gift of being saved (or salvation) through a heart-felt prayer:
1. Personally asking God for forgiveness of your sin
2. Willfully accepting His payment for your sin
by His death, burial, and resurrection on your behalf.
If you have just trusted Christ, we would love to rejoice with you!
Please tell us your story. Thank you!
