I 53 Youth Ministry is a ministry for students in 6th – 12th grades who are seeking to find deeper meaning in life. In I 53 Youth Ministry, we believe that meaning can only be found in a relationship with Jesus Christ and so we strive, in all that we do, to provide opportunities for that relationship to be nurtured. I 53 stands for Isaiah 53 which is the foretelling of our savior Jesus, and His sacrifice. We must remember each day His sacrifice as we lead young people into His embrace.

We also schedule various outreach events, service projects, and other fun activities throughout the month.  We meet each Wednesday night for "The Drive" at 6:30 P.M.  Transportation is available by calling 217-446-7289 ext. 15.  You can also contact us from this site.
