About the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ)

Our Identity
We are Disciples of Christ, a movement for wholeness in a fragmented world. As part of the one body of Christ, we welcome all to the Lord’s Table as God has welcomed us. |
Our Confession
As members of the Christian Church, We confess Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the living God, and proclaim him Lord and Savior of the world. - Matthew 16:16 |
Our Vision
To be a faithful, growing church, that demonstrates true community, deep Christian spirituality and a passion for justice. – Micah 6:8 |
Our Mission
To be and to share the Good News of Jesus Christ, witnessing, loving and serving from our doorsteps “to the ends of the earth.” – Acts 1:8 |
About Peoria
Peoria is one of the oldest settlements in Illinois, as explorers first ventured up the Illinois River from the Mississippi. The lands that eventually would become Peoria were first settled by Europeans in 1680. The County of Peoria was organized in 1825. Peoria was incorporated as a village on March 11, 1835 and as a city in 1845.
Peoria was named after the Peoria indigenous peoples. A 21st-century proposal of the meaning of the name suggests a derivation from a Proto-Algonquian word meaning "to dream with the help of [a] Manitou (God)."
As our city continues to change, our prayer is that we might dream God's dreams for this place and act to bring God's kingdom, here and now, in Peoria.
