Faith Church was blessed with tremendous growth as the transition to the Dyer site was made. After receiving input about the health of the church from a consulting firm in 2005, it was made clear that Faith was in need of more worship space immediately. The best option to accommodate growth and to maintain the vision of “reaching the religiously disconnected and growing the connected” was to consider adding another campus. After attending a conference in Naperville at Community Christian Church (a church with nine locations), the leadership of Faith was compelled to embrace the model of “one church in multiple locations.” 

Due to a large number of people driving from the southeast of Dyer to attend worship services, it was determined that a campus in the Crown Point/Cedar Lake/Lowell area would be sustainable. After much prayer, planning and research, the Faith Church-Cedar Lake campus was launched with 110 committed “missionaries” at Hanover Central High School in September of 2007. By offering a worship experience that is identifiable with the Dyer campus, as well as the same excellent children’s ministry and connection through mini-churches, the “DNA” of Faith Church has been reproduced in Cedar Lake. With 250-300 men, women and children gathering each weekend in Cedar Lake, the momentum to continue adding campuses and venues to accommodate growth and reach new communities continues to grow as well. Faith-Valpo, our third campus, officially launched Easter, 2009. Only God knows where the next campus will be!
