Stanford Community Church (Stanford, Illinois, USA)
The Stanford Community Church, Stanford, Illinois, USA, was a church planted in 2009 by the Southern Illinois Mission Partnership (SIMP). SIMP was a cooperative effort of the Argentine-based Patagonia Mission Project and committed individuals and congregations in the Illinois Mennonite Conference of Mennonite Church USA to expand the Anabaptist Christian witness in southern Illinois. Loren and Deb Miller provided early leadership to the group.
In May 2014, the congregation dedicated a newly completed meeting facility.
Sometime between 2017 and 2020, the congregation withdrew from the Illinois Mennonite Conference. In 2023 it related to the Evana Network.
