I am not a believer and I don’t even have a Bible.  I am afraid I will feel out of place.

It is okay if you do not know much about God.  You will still feel at home at Emmanuel.  We welcome anyone who is trying to learn about God and would like to come to an understanding of Salvation.  The service is easy to follow and the messages that are given are easy to understand.

You will be really excited with how you will fit in here.  We come from all walks of life, but are united by our faith in Jesus.

If I visit your church, will I get a bunch of calls or visits from you?

No.  We just hope that you would provide us the opportunity of contacting you after your visit.  This helps us to provide any answers to the questions you might have.  It is your choice if you want us to do this by mail or telephone.

Do I have to provide money during offering?

No.  You will not be pressured to provide anything; you are our guest.

There are a bunch of different types of Baptist out there, which type are you?

We are members of the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) and are united with other SBC churches in Illinois through the Illinois Baptist State Association.  What that means is that we are united with other Southern Baptist churches by what we believe.  You can read The Baptist Faith and Message 2000 for more information about our beliefs.

Okay, I will like to visit.  Where are you?

Please see the attached map.  You can park right along the road next to the church or in the parking lot of the school that is our neighbor.

There are two doors you can enter.  You can see the front door to the sanctuary as you drive up to the church.  Then there is another door toward the back that will lead you into the classroom hallway. Just follow the signs on the wall to the sanctuary.

We would love to have you join us.

Are you a follower of Jesus Christ and looking for a place to worship?  Are you a person who is not saved and seeking something more in this life? By visiting us, you will experience a time of worship, learning and fellowship.  We have all been where you are right now and we understand.   Allow us to help you with what you are searching for.
