The Church
We are an evangelical church of about 250 people located in the state capital of Springfield, IL. Springfield is approximately 200 miles south of Chicago and 100 miles north of St. Louis. The greater Springfield area has an approximate population of 200,000, consisting of a thriving medical community, a university (UIS), and many State of Illinois jobs. The church was founded in 1974, and we have a good mix of multiple generations in the church. We believe this position is very important in helping us train up the next generation in the Lord.
