WHAT IS THE COMMUNITY LIKE?
We are a traditional, progressive, congregational church. Our members comprise a wide range of ages and backgrounds. Many of our members come from around or near the Humboldt Park community, but we open our doors to any person, from any background.

Every person is valuable, each individual’s relationship with God is unique, the church is to have a prophetic voice, God is still speaking…

WHAT IF I’M NOT A CHRISTIAN?
As a Christian church the symbolism we adopt will be Christian. But we embrace and welcome people from other faith traditions as well as those with no faith traditions. We believe that all faiths are reflections of one Divine reality, one spiritual Power.


Leadership is about equipping leaders. Our church community is focused on developing and nurturing active and powerful voices in the community and the world.
From its beginning, First Church has been a stalwart for justice. Founded in 1851, Primera Iglesia broke from the Presbyterian Church to unite a new community that stood against “the sin of slavery”. Today our church continues to identify and resist ALL FORMS of societal injustices.
