History....
In the fall of 1975, Wayne Gordon began teaching and
coaching at Farragut High School on Chicago's west side.
At that time Wayne moved into an apartment in the
Lawndale Community and began a FCA Bible Study.
From this core group of high school students Wayne
and Anne Gordon along with a mother of several of the
boys the idea of starting a church was first conceived.
With the meeting of fifteen people in March of 1978,
Lawndale Community Church moved from a dream to a
reality.
