Description: Lombard Mennonite Church is an Anabaptist-Mennonite congregation in Chicago's western suburbs. Our mission statement, "Come Follow Jesus With Us", reflects our calling to be invitational and welcoming, our commitment to Christ-centered discipleship and peacemaking, and our conviction that we can only live faithfully with the help of a faith community.
Founded: 1954
Members/Covenanted Attendees: 181
History: The first official meeting of the Lombard Mennonite Church was held on October 23, 1954 in the Lombard Civic Club. The church grew out of a dream of two Mennonite leaders to plant a church in Chicago's western suburbs. The current property was purchased in 1956, with parts of the building constructed in 1958 and 1975. Today's congregation contains people from a variety of faith backgrounds (only about 50% are ethnic Mennonites) with a strong emphasis on Christ-centered discipleship.
