Midwest Creation Fellowship is a Christian nonprofit educational organization. We exist to encourage fellow Christians by showing that the Genesis account of creation and the subsequent world-wide flood are in harmony with the vast majority of evidence from history and science. brochure - 499 KB
Funding for our activities comes from membership dues, contributions and sales of educational resources. The work is done by volunteers. Gifts to MCF are tax-deductible.

Our annual Student Essay Contest for ages 11-18 encourages young people to develop their knowledge of the creation/evolution controversy, and to develop their skills in researching, writing and presenting. Prizes include cash and book gift certificates. Top winners are invited to present their papers at a public MCF meeting in the fall, and some of these have also been published in the newsletter of Creation Research Society and, with additional work, on the Answers In Genesis web site. |

Library-by-Mail: We now own over 500 titles of VHS videos (North American format), audios, DVDs and books. About 85% of our titles deal with the creation/evolution controversy, and the rest deal with issues such as the value of human life, sex ed, archaeology and the Bible, and the Judeo-Christian origins of American government. Use of the Library is restricted to members, who must also be able to use the U.S. postal system, but it only costs $20.00/year to be a member! Your only other cost is to return the items to us at LIBRARY RATE via U.S. Mail.

Traveling Planetarium Workshop:
All ages enjoy learning about the Heavens in this "inflatable igloo" planetarium! It can come to your group if you are within 50 miles of Wheaton, Illinois. Nathan Volle will teach you to identify stars and constellations, and explain how "the heavens declare the glory of God!" (Psalms 19:1)

Noah's Ark Exhibit:
(below) Nathan's six-foot long model of Noah's Ark, with scale-model people and animals, can come to your group, if you are within 50 miles of Wheaton, Illinois. (It amazes people how different the Ark was from the silly pictures of it seen everywhere!)

Speaker Bureau: We have a number of speakers on creation-related topics. If you call or write with a request for a speaker on a specific topic and/or in a specific geographic area, we'll look up who might be able to help you, and help you get in touch with him. Our speakers live around the Midwest.

Book Sales: Our Booktable is usually present at our events, and can be set up for your Chicago-area group. We carry mostly books, plus a few videos, DVDs and audiotapes. Members of MCF get a 20% discount. (Sorry--we do not yet sell online.)
