The History of the Church of Christ in Moline
The Church of Christ in Moline, Illinois has a very proud history that began with a few Christians in the late 1940’s. The Church of Christ in this area began meeting on December of 1946 in the CIO Hall at 1034 15th Avenue of East Moline. The attendance began with around 15 persons. The members of that day only met there until July of 1947, because the tavern next door forced them out.
The church survived by meeting in homes for the next few years until money could be raised to put towards the building at our present day location. The church at this location began assembling in the 1960's. Since then, many people have come and gone, passed on from this life, and have been blessed by being a part of the church at this location.
Presently, the church employs two full time ministers, has around 175 members, and some of the faithful people who came to the church here in the 1950’s are still around on Sundays and Wednesdays. We thank God for the blessing of the Church of Christ in Moline and hope that you will want to be a part of our proud history and our vision for the future.
