Emmanuel Baptist Church

I’m giving this church 3 stars, but how many stars it deserves really depends on what you’re looking for. I think it’s best to read reviews from others who visited a church rather than those who are already members, as they’ll have the outsider’s point of view that you’re looking for.
I was surprised to see the age of almost everyone in this church to be over 55 and predominately female. I’m white and was the only white person in the church, and I must say they were very accepting and very friendly. So I give them points on this for sure.
I’m in search for a fun, raucous gospel choir and know I’ll find it in a church. I went to Glide in San Fran when I lived there and have yet to find anything like it here in Chicago. If anyone knows of any great choirs, hopefully in a multi-​cultural and church, I’d be glad to hear about it.
This church was not what I was looking for, but it may be what you’re looking for. Just know that there aren’t a lot of younger or single people, and it’s not mixed that much racially. But God Bless these people, because they are kind and warm and accepting, and that’s what it’s all about!
Alleluhiah!

A well establish south side church with a friendly «down home» atmosphere. Also has a K-​8^th Christian school. My husband went here as a child, and my mother in law attends weekly. The preaching is well-​rounded and the building is beautiful. The music will make you want to clap your hands!
