About

According to Ephesians 4:11-13 the role of the church is to build up believers in their faith and to equip them to serve so they may reach maturity in Christ.  In other words, the job of every church is to grow people spiritually and unleash them to serve the world and be the hands and feet of Jesus.  In 2015 FBC Elgin radically embraced this call by adopting a new mission/vision/purpose - returning to these core principles.  Helping people grow spiritually - increasing their love for God and for fellow man.  Calling people to serve wherever they see the need - moving beyond simply hearing the words of Christ to actually do what they say.
