About This Organization

Heritage Church is a multi-site, multi-generational church in the northwest suburbs of Chicago, with its central campus in Lake Zurich. The church is passionate about helping people find and follow Jesus in a way that is authentic and relevant to today’s culture. It’s a community where people are welcomed as they are and invited into meaningful connection, with grace and truth at the center of everything they do.

The Lake Zurich campus recently opened a 35,000-square-foot addition that includes a 1,000-seat auditorium and a large new lobby space. This state-of-the-art facility allows Heritage to serve both the church and the surrounding community in new and exciting ways. With locations in Lake Zurich, Barrington, and Round Lake Beach, Heritage is unified in its programming and ministry philosophy while giving each campus some level of freedom to craft ministry for its local neighborhood.

Location

“My family absolutely loves living in the Lake Zurich area because it has small-town vibes while being just an hour drive from the BEST city in the world, Chicago! Even more than that, the close-knit community makes me feel truly connected. It’s an incredible place to raise a family and I feel grateful to call Lake Zurich home.”
