Batavia United Methodist Church, 8 N Batavia Ave, Batavia, IL 60510, US

In worship we gather in the presence of God celebrating His love. Worship at Immanuel energizes and informs our whole week, as the Word of God is practically taught and we are encouraged to strive forward in faith throughout our lives. Immanuel's goal is for every person to have a firm knowledge of what the Bible says about who God is and what He says about life and faith. Small groups at Immanuel are all about building community and sharing life together. Through opportunities to serve in many roles we find joy in being a blessing to others and discover and develop the wonderful gifts that God has given each of us. The mission of Immanuel is to equip Jesus' disciples to engage the world through faith. The church is not a place where the people of God gather apart from the world. The church is the people of God engaged in the world! Immanuel Lutheran School provides excellence in preschool, elementary, and middle school private, parochial education using best practices and sharing the love of Christ on a daily basis. We believe that each child is a special gift of God and is to be encouraged to develop socially, emotionally, physically, cognitively and spiritually; and child is provided with appropriate activities that will encourage continued growth to reach his or her potential.
