Trinity Grace Church (TGC) is a medium-sized (230 – 270) evangelical non-denominational
church, consisting of four congregations: Cantonese, English, Mandarin, and Northwest
Church Plant. Cantonese, English, and Mandarin congregations are located in Highland
Park, IL, and the Northwest Church Plant is in Long Grove, IL. Our Northwest Church Plant
Congregation averages 60 and includes retirees, families, working professionals, and
students. It is primarily first-generation Chinese. We desire to be a church that is steadfast
in truth, sacrificial in grace, and sowing seeds of faith – all for the glory of God. We are also
intentional in participating both directly and indirectly in foreign missions.
