Covering a five-county area south and south-west of Chicago and headquartered in the Westview Baptist Church in Shorewood, the Three Rivers Baptist Association consists of 32 churches and four missions. Its main function is to foster communication and coordination between those churches and their congregations to strengthen their resources and relevance, both individually and as a whole.
Westview Baptist Church is a Southern Baptist Church with a modest congregation. Westview Baptist shares its building with another church and the Three Rivers Baptist Association.
The Pathway Christian Fellowship Church began when a small group of men and women who met regularly for home Bible study decided to celebrate an Easter sunrise service in 1984. That first service was conducted in a downtown Joliet restaurant and went so well that the celebrants decided to meet regularly and form their own church. The church's motto is, "Join us on the journey."
