Welcome
to Faith Church!
Welcome
to the web site of Faith United Protestant Church, in Park Forest,
Illinois. Faith Church was established in 1951 under the
sponsorship of the United Church of Christ. We are an
interdenominational church, welcoming people from all Christian
communities. We are a church that celebrates the diversity of
God's creation, and are open to all who seek to find a closer
relationship with the One "who is able to make all things new."
If you are seeking a church home, we invite you to journey through the
information provided here and especially to join us for worship in the
very near future. May God be present with you and may
Christ inspire you and may The Holy Spirit guide you to joy and peace.
