Welcome
to
First Church of the Brethren of Peoria

Worship is central to who we are and our expression of love for Jesus.

Everyone is welcome. You will find worship here to be a blend of formal and informal. Traditional elements are mixed with more modern styles like drama and a praise band. All with the purpose of giving praise to God.

Small groups exist to help us grow in our faith as we walk side by side with each other. We have groups for all ages. We have groups that study the bible and others that study topics. These groups help us learn what it means to be a follower of Jesus and how to live that out in practical ways.

Mission work is the way we put our faith into action to Make a Difference in the community and around the world. Things like snack-packs for a local school, collecting household items for our mission work in Kentucky, distributing food to help with hunger in Peoria, or helping build affordable homes with Habitat for Humanity. All of these are ways we share the love of Jesus

Fellowship is where we get to know each other. It's in fellowship that we share our stories, our joys, and our struggles. Fellowship is where we become a community that follows Jesus together. At coffee time and potlucks, at church picnics and movie nights we laugh together and cry together and know that we are loved.

Caring Ministries is where we lift one another up. Praying for each other, visiting the sick, or singing with the residents of a local memory care home. Caring is how we show the Love that Jesus has shown to each of us.
