Progressive Community Church, located in Chicago, IL, is one of the oldest and most respected churches in the city. Established in 1922, it was one of the first independent non-denominational African-American churches in America, known for its commitment to the fundamental beliefs of the Bible and the traditional form of worship, while also embracing social activism and new forms of worship. Throughout its history, Progressive has played a significant role in addressing the urgent needs of the community, from supporting the establishment of the first gospel chorus in America to actively participating in social movements and seeking racial healing. Under the leadership of Rev. Dr. B. Herbert Martin, Sr., Progressive continues to be a dynamic voice for God's work in Chicago, maintaining the traditions of the African-American worship experience while embracing change and remaining anchored in the vision and spirit of Jesus Christ.Generated from the website
