Places of Worship

The Pekin area is blessed with 55 churches practicing many different faiths. The beautiful architecture of the church buildings is as diverse as the number of denominations. An active Pekin Area Ministerial Alliance gathers the local religious leaders together to strengthen the ties in the religious community.

The Pekin area also boasts several faith-based schools covering all grade levels from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade.

"I moved to Pekin in October of 2006, and now six months later I am still very excited to live here.  The people are great, very kind and inviting, and that has made all the difference.  I look forward to many years in this area."

- Daryle Wright, Associate Pastor, Pekin First Church of the Nazarene
