Meet
Incarnation
The
Church of the Incarnation,
Bloomingdale can trace its beginning back to November 4, 1981 when The Rt. Rev. James Montgomery of the Diocese of
Chicago appointed The Rev.
Alvin Johnson as a missioner to the area. He began to gather
a congregation by knocking on doors.
With the help and love of two sister churches
in the Aurora Deanery, Trinity Church in Wheaton and St.
Mark's
Church in Glen Ellyn, the fledgling mission began to take shape and
grow. The first Eucharist and study groups were held in members'
homes until a nucleus of 86 people gathered on Palm Sunday 1982 for
their first formal worship service in the gym at the Central School
in Bloomingdale. A proud and thankful congregation occupied its
present church building at 261 West Army Trail Road, Bloomingdale,
IL on July 31, 1988.
Over the years we have gone through many changes, yet
we have
remained the same caring and intimate church family we have all come
to love. Incarnation is proud to be home to many
who have found our worship and fellowship a common meeting ground to
many from varied faith backgrounds.
