Support Groups

(Updated 12/14/22)

University Baptist is home to a number of Support Groups that utilize our facilities. As of October 15, 2022, most all regular support group meetings have been moved next door into the UBC Mission House located at 309 N Sherman Ave, Macomb, IL 61455 as pictured below. This helps to provide a more permanent home for the groups as they will now have their own space. Also below is a list of weekly meetings hosted by University Baptist as well as known meetings within the immediate area.

While we don’t run the meetings, or have any official ties to them, we are happy to open our doors to the work that is being done, and are thankful that we have a facility capable of serving our community. We hope that if you are seeking assistance that you will find our facilities warm and inviting.
