Averyville Baptist Church

About this church

Averyville Baptist Church in East Peoria, Illinois, describes itself as an Independent Baptist church that sings the old hymns and preaches from the King James Bible. Sunday begins with Sunday School at 10 a.m., followed by the morning service at 11 a.m. and an evening service at 6:30 p.m. Prayer and Bible study meets Wednesday at 7 p.m. The congregation has been on Spring Bay Road since the 1970s, after beginning in the Averyville neighborhood of Peoria, and the building has on-site parking.

Children and families are well covered. A nursery serves birth through age two at every service, Sunday School classes run from age two through sixth grade, and Jr Church gives children their own service during the 11 a.m. hour. Wednesday evenings include Patch the Pirate Club for kindergarten through fifth grade and Tiny Treasures for ages two to four. Teens in grades 7 through 12 and a college and career class meet Sunday mornings, and adults have their own Sunday School class. A church bus and van offer rides, and the church hands out free Bibles and goes door to door on a regular schedule. There is no dress code and no expectation that guests give in the offering.
