Hello There!

Grace Bible Church is a contemporary
​non-denominational church located just north of Cissna Park, Illinois. We aim to help people find and follow Jesus.

Our church welcomes anyone to join us for service and see what we're all about. Sunday service always includes a worship service and Sunday School classes are offered during the school year.

Join Us This Sunday!

Sunday School: 9:00am
Worship Service: 10:00am

What To Expect on Sunday:

We get it, visiting a new church can be tricky! We hope that you will feel welcome and at peace when you attend any service or event at GBC. Here is what a typical Sunday morning looks like for our church:
Before the Worship Service:
9:45am-10:00am
Enter the church from the main parking lot into our cafe and gym area. We will have coffee and donuts for you to enjoy as well as plenty of people to chat with and meet if you want! The gym is also open for children and youth to shoot 
hoops and run around. Bathrooms are located along the hallway if needed.

10:00am
The lights will usually flicker on and off meaning that it is time to head to the sanctuary. You'll walk down the hallway to the main part of the building. If you want to drop off children 5 years old or younger at nursery, the rooms are located in the hallway.
10:05 am (ish)
As you enter the sanctuary, you'll find pews and usually a countdown on the screen letting you know when the service will start. Find a seat anywhere you'd like! Children are encouraged to stay with their families during the service, and there are some rocking chairs located just outside the sanctuary doors if your little one wants a bit of space.
During the Worship Service:
​Our worship service usually includes announcements, worship music, prayer, and a sermon. The worship music is displayed on the screen in front of the sanctuary and you are welcome to sing along if you'd like! Our pastor usually delivers the sermon, although an elder or guest speaker may be speaking on occasion. If your child makes noise or cries during the service, don't worry, we are used to it! GBC celebrates communion once every few months as well.
After the Worship Service:
The congregation will be dismissed when the service is over. We hope that you can meet some people during this time! Check out our welcome booth in the lobby area, collect children from nursery, and feel free to play in the gym and chat with others if you'd like! We hope that you'll come back again!

What Makes GBC Different:

God's Grace:
We are committed to preaching and living out the power of God's grace to save us apart from good works or religious rituals, and to transform our lives as we drink increasingly deeper in this gospel of grace.
God's People:
We desire to reach every generation for Christ and value the intergenerational relationships that smaller churches offer. At the same time, we intentionally emphasize children and family ministry in order to bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.
God's Word:
We typically preach through books of the Bible or sections of the Scriptures so that the main point of the sermon becomes the main point of the biblical passage, often called expositional preaching.
God's World:
We are a church dedicated to world missions- this has remained true since its foundation, and is reflected in our budget, missions committee, and attempts to reach our community for Christ.
