City of Refuge Ministries - Bloomington (IL)

Shane Blackledge Wonderful church. They have an excellent Celebrate Recovery ministry that meets on Tuesday night. I highly recommend this church.

Adrienne L I was a part of the "Jake" community during the short time I lived in IL, and it SO enriched my life! Pastor Dave is humble, well-studied, eloquent, and good-humored -- all of which is reflected in the friendly, down-to-earth community there. I made lifelong friends and miss them dearly!

C. Mason Davis My friend, who is also my landlord and I visited this church for the first time today. Unlike in any other church in this area, we were welcomed by just about everybody in attendance and they all wanted to welcome us so wed feel welcome there. They treated us like family from the beginning. The music was traditional, which we favor very much, the pastor spoke very well and meaningfully in his message, and extremely knowledgeable about the Bible. After the service, we met a lot of people we didnt have the time to meet before the service, and feel like everyone cared that we came. We plan to go back, for sure, and are very excited to see what the future holds for us at Freedom Baptist Church. My Irish Setter service dog was loved by everyone without one question as to why he was at the service with me, and his tail didnt stop wagging the whole time. This church is full of love.

Matthew Range Beautiful Catholic Church in Bloomington Illinois!

Makenzie Hopper I was a non-believer at first. There is a mighty presence of the Holy Spirit at work in this place of holiness. I got baptized June 22nd this year of 2023. I attend every Sunday for service and every Thursday evening for Celebrate Recovery. This church and the community is saving my life.

Madonna Courtright As Jesus was...we are a liberal, loving church family that reaches out to help our neighbors. Very open to all cultures including the LGBTQ community.

Amy Oun Great church. Friendly, casual, good worship music, good coffee! Its inside the Crossroads Center on the north side.

Dawn Norris I visited the church for an ordination. The service was wonderful very uplifting and spirit-filled. The people were very pleasant and welcoming. Pastor Bennett delivered the Word of GOD with confidence, boldness and unapologetically. I was in a spiritual high at the end of worship.

Lorretta Fernandez The people I’ve had the pleasure of meeting and working with are so nice. They carry what the church teaches into the community. If you are looking for a welcoming place, try Trinity Lutheran.
