ABOUT PARK COMMUNITY CHURCH



Park Community Church is a non-denominational, contemporary Christian church with a heart for the city of Chicago. Park'ss presence in the city began 19 years ago, when a group of individuals in their 20'ss and 30'ss envisioned a vibrant church where the truth of the Gospel could be clearly and creatively communicated to the surrounding community. A place for people to connect, to grow and to serve.



Park'ss lakefront location in the midst of several dynamic North Side neighborhoods is a result of our belief that God has called us to play a role in the spiritual renewal of Chicago. To that end, we are partnering with other churches and organizations to be part of a movement to live out our vision: to be a biblical community where the Gospel of Jesus Christ transforms lives, renews the city and impacts the world.
