Moraine Valley Church is located in the southwest suburbs of Chicago – an area that is diverse both socioeconomically and ethnically. The diversity in our community provides an incredible opportunity to put the gospel on display in visible and tangible ways as we seek to reach everyone in every situation with the life-changing hope of Jesus. The Palos Heights area is near great shopping and entertainment. The southwest communities are situated close to large nature preserves, bike paths, and outdoor experiences. The area is a short drive or train ride away from a thriving downtown culture in Chicago. Award-winning schools are also nearby making the area a great place for families.
