Our Story

The Grove Church began as a dream of what God could do through a new, life-giving church rooted in faith, unity, and mission. After a season of prayer, planning, and vision-casting, that dream became a reality on April 7, 2024, with the launch of a new, multi-generational church community in Downers Grove.

Everything we do is shaped by our mission to help people find and follow Jesus. We live out that mission through five commitments—the 5 G’s: we Gather in worship and community, Grow to become more like Jesus, Give generously of our time and resources, Go into our neighborhoods and the world to serve and share hope, and ultimately Glorify God in all things.

We are grateful for God’s faithfulness so far and continue to pray and dream that He would do more than we could ever ask or imagine as we live out His mission together.
