First Presbyterian Church

About Us

An outpost of God's grace in northwest Illinois since 1829

We have the oldest church building in continuous use in the region of the U.S.A. that was once called the Old Northwest Territory. So we have deep roots, but we also try to remain innovative and open to new approaches to be the body of Christ in the contemporary world.
