ABOUT OUR CHURCH

OUR PASTOR
Our former pastor has moved on in ministry and our new pastor will arrive in June. Please pray for a smooth transition for him and his family. In the meantime, we'll have Sunday services as usual led by our worship team and guest speakers/pastors.

OUR MINISTRY PHILOSOPHY

Here at Homestead Church we have adopted a simple ministry philosophy. By that we mean that we have aligned every ministry in the church to work toward accomplishing the same overall mission: to help each person grow in Christ and share His love with all.

 

Each ministry works together as part of the same process. The steps have been clearly laid out and are easy to follow. We believe that by intentionally focusing all of our resources and efforts, we will see real spiritual growth take place in the lives of every believer.

OUR CHURCH

Homestead Church, previously Homestead Fellowship, was founded in Jan. 2003 by Pastor Steve Schroepfer and wife Jackie. The church met in the Schroepfer home, and several Fox Valley churches provided direction and financial support during those first crucial years.

​

Homestead soon grew and eventually rented space in a strip mall. However, the church soon outgrew that facility, and the current church building was purchased in 2011. Homestead's leadership team has projected 5- and 10-year growth plans. 

​

Since the beginning, Homestead has valued relationships. Whether it is learning together, serving together, or just sharing good food and conversation, we are building connections.

Our Beliefs

OUR BELIEFS

Homestead Church is a Christian church affiliated with the Assemblies of God. Our church adheres to the Statement of Fundamental Truths.

​

We believe the Bible is the Word of God, and is the "guide" by which God calls us to live our lives.

​

At Homestead Church, we practice open communion (Lord's Supper). This means that if you have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and believe that He is your only means of salvation, you may join us, even if you're a member of another church/denomination.
