West Central is a loving, multi-cultural and multi-generational Christian church located in the beautiful village of Oak Park, Illinois. We are a part of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, a worldwide movement that seeks to enhance the quality of living for people everywhere.
The Seventh-day Adventist Church is a mainstream Protestant church with approximately 19 million members worldwide, including more than one million members in North America. The Adventist Church operates 173 hospitals and sanitariums and more than 7,500 schools around the world. The Adventist Development and Relief Agency (ADRA) works within communities in more than 130 countries to provide community development and disaster relief. Seventh-day Adventists seek to share both our faith in God and the church's commitment to the betterment of all human beings.
Our doors are always open to the community; and to anyone who wishes to worship and serve Jesus with us!
Build strong relationships to Christ through transformative bible studies, engaging worship experiences, relevant service opportunities and shared spiritual support with fellow believers.
The church exists to continue what Jesus began long ago - a revolution of compassion. Jesus was the epitome of love. He set people free, accepted them openly, confronted acts of injustice, fed the poor, healed the sick, shared hope and peace.
Jesus removes all obstacles that obstruct people’s view of God and demonstrated a compassion so deep that He surrendered his life, for our redemption. This limitless love story is what inspires us to follow Jesus and serve our world.
Since finding Christ should not be hard, and He promised that He could be found if we truly searched for Him (Jeremiah 29:13), our church mission is to:
Worship Jesus authentically, Love others unconditionally and Serve the world radically!
Join us on a life changing spiritual journey, as we share the love of Jesus with others and grow together in God's grace!
