WELCOME TO FELLOWSHIP IN CHRIST CHRISTIAN CHURCH!
We are a multi-generational, multi-ethnic evangelical community of Christians in Southern Illinois.
Our mission is to love God, love others, and make disciples!
Our vision is to be a God-glorifying, Jesus-following, Spirit-filled, gospel-centered, mission-minded body of believers who are committed to serving others and are the catalyst for the Kingdom of Heaven being experienced in our neighborhoods and the nations.
Please do not worry about what to wear! For we truly believe people should come to God as they are. You don't need to dress up to get his approval--that comes through Jesus' sacrifice. When you walk in the doors, you'll see that the congregation has all types of people in all kinds of dress. While a few people in the church wear ties, others like to remind them that Jesus never wore a tie. Shorts are as welcome as suits, and you'll see both.
Visit our Connect Center! It is stationed in the front foyer as soon as you walk in. The members of our Connect Team will be there to serve free coffee and doughnuts every Sunday morning. The Connect Center is the perfect place to find out all there is to know about our church. The Connect Team will also be handing out Connect Cards and giving away a gift to new visitors as a way of saying thanks for visiting us today.
During the service - relax. God loves you and we are happy you are here. Our Sunday service begins at 10:30AM and will usually last for about an hour. We rejoice that God calls us to worship Him as a family every Sunday. We gather to share in Communion, support the work of His Kingdom by giving, sing His praises, and hear a relevant message rooted in Scripture. We end each service with an invitation for prayer.
For those with kids, we offer ministry opportunities from newborn to 4th grade. During our Sunday morning worship service, we invite you and your children to join us in worshiping God. Before the message, the Kid's Leaders will be dismissed. At this time, all children are invited to attend our ministry opportunities. If you would like for your kids to stay with you doing the service, you are welcome to do that as well. If you have more questions or would like to get connected with our kid's ministries, the Connect Center will be open to assist you with anything you need.
Our church is located at 1204 Pin Oak Drive Carterville, IL 62918, and parking is in front of the church.
If you have mobility restrictions or young children to carry, feel free to use one of the spots closest to the door. We like to keep them free for visitors and people who need assistance.
