About - Philadelphia Pentecostal Church, Chicago

About us

Philadelphia Pentecostal Church has been a visual, God fearing, and Loving church in the Northern Suburbs of Chicago, IL. We named our Church "Philadelphia" back in 1996 based on a passage of scripture from Revelation Ch. 3. The Greek term Philadelphia translation means "Brotherly Love." Rev 3:7-8 reads "What he opens no one can shut. I know your deeds. See, I have placed before you an open door that no-one can shut. I know that you have little strength, yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name.

Philadelphia Pentecostal Church is a non-denominational, South Indian, Malayalee Church. Currently meeting at the Comfort Inn in Elk Grove Village, Illinois. Services are conducted in English and Malayalam (the native language of our members). We preach sound doctrine and worship the Lord in spirit and in the truth. Philadelphia, literally means "brotherly love" and we embody that. We are a family church, rooted in Christ's love, equipping His people for the last days. Next time your in the Chicago land area, come and visit us. God Bless You and enjoy!!
