BETTER B-TOWN

WHAT IS BETTER B-TOWN?

Embassy Church exists to advance the message and ministry of Jesus in the city of Bloomington and on the campus of IU. While our ultimate calling as a church is to make disciples, we want to open up consistent, seasonal opportunities to serve our city with the ministry of Jesus.

“Better B-Town” is our language and vision behind city outreach initiatives to help everyone at Embassy envision and create a Better Bloomington — one marked by loving our neighbors.
