The Great Lakes District of the Evangelical Free Church of America (EFCA) is one of approximately 22 districts. Our district spans Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, the Western half of Ohio, and the Ohio-Kentucky border. In order for the district to remain relevant to the churches and faithful to its mission, it has further divided into regions. Each region represents about 50 churches, and each region has one Regional Superintendent, who serves as the Pastor to the Pastors.
