About Eastview Christian Church

When 19 people started a church in Normal, Illinois in 1955; they never imagined that their simple vision and God’s faithfulness would become what is now Eastview Christian Church. Their desire was to start a church that was dedicated to the Word of God, worshiped Jesus as Lord and Savior, and was on a mission to share this good news with the world. From those early prayers and dreams, Eastview has become a church that God has grown by His grace and power.
