The Brief History of Monmouth Chin Christian Church
In the midst of 2010, we, Chin immigrates, started moving to Monmouth, Illinois because they find jobs here at Smithfield Farmland Foods, Inc.. After a few months, we started looking for a place to have a worship service with our own language known as Chin because almost all of us cannot speak English. So, the first meeting was held with a few c
hin people to form a local church on December 26th, 2010 at a rented house on 26th December 2010. The first Sunday worship service was held on January 2nd, 2011 at the apartment where Chin lived. And we have services every Sunday from house to house. The Service was later named Monmouth Chin Christian Church (MCCC). On 9th January 2011, we established rule and regulation for the preservation and security of the principles of our faith. Later, we seek a help from Immanuel Baptist Church (IBC) for finding a sanctuary since it is not much possibility to have a service for longer at rented houses. And they warmly welcome and allowed us to use the sanctuary. So, the first service at the sanctuary was held on February 4th, 2011 at 1:00 pm at Immanuel Baptist Church, Monmouth, IL. After two years, God open the door for us to buy a Church building for the glory of God and good of His people. God is faithful all the time for His people.
