Faith Center

Faith Center

Today: 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM

Faith Center is a life-giving church, led by Apostle Don Lyon. Our desire is to provide a place for people to experience God and fulfill His purpose for their lives. Faith Center Church is a non-denominational congregation of believers in Rockford, Illinois whose purpose is to show the unconditional love of God as well as raise up disciples and followers of Christ. The Bible says that the world will know us (the church) by our love. It is our goal to train others to effectively show forth that love in order to establish an environment that compels all who come, to know Him personally. God sent His only son Jesus into this fallen world to give life more abundantly to all who will receive it. When there seemed to be no way of redemption, Jesus came and provided one through His death, burial and resurrection. Our desire and prayer is that all who come through the doors of Faith Center will have an experience with God that will revolutionize their lives and give them a hope and understanding of what they can be in Christ.

Today: 9:00 AM - 6:00 PM

One Spirit is the coming together of people and ideas; a forum to gather, honoring spiritual teachings from around the world and sharing wisdom which has been passed down through the centuries. 1Spirit seeks to bridge the perceived gap between people and between faiths. We believe that we are all part of one system, one ultimate entity, and that this system is the whole of everything. Our contention is that the whole of humanity, the whole of the world, the whole of the Universe, is one thing. We, as humans are part of this magnificent Creation and that Creation is part of us. We can never be separated from it. This wholeness is God, or whatever other name you want to call It. Father, Mother, Creator…We use the word God here because it is convenient, not because it is the only name for Creation. Our purpose is to illustrate the basic unity of all things.

Second Congregational UCC/First Presbyterian Church of Rockford

Worshipping GodBy employing a wide range of traditions, liturgies and music in a familiar format, we hope a diverse body of people can know the presence of the living, loving God. By the grace of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, we can come before God with all of our emotions and experiences to praise, confess, learn and sing. We desire to revel in the written and spoken Word of God, that encourages us to love one another and walk with Jesus in our city.Welcoming All PeopleSecond First Church desires to mirror the Kingdom of God where all of God’s children (all people) are welcomed as we are, cherished for our differences and drawn together in the one body of Christ. We desire our church structure and expressions of faith reflect the diversity of race, culture, politics, gender and sexual orientation in the Rockford community. SecondFirst Church seeks to encourage each of us to live into who God created us to be!Serving Our NeighborsWe want to serve one another through Christian care, fellowship and prayer. We desire for the walls of our church to be permeable to the neighborhood, where there is no external distinction between neighbor and member. With the understanding we are all in need at different times (there is no “us” and “them”), we seek to serve the physical, spiritual and materials needs of our members and neighbors. We desire to work tirelessly for justice on behalf of those who are broken by life’s circumstances.Sharing God’s GraceWe have been so richly blessed by the grace of God made known to us in the birth, life, death and resurrection of Jesus the Christ. We seek to share this grace with one another and with the greater Rockford community. While many believe following God restricts them to a set of rules, we want to tell the world of God’s expansive, life-giving and extravagant grace. We seek to align ourselves with the God of grace who is working toward making all things right and new, where all people are loved, upheld and cherished.
