Stay up to date!
From Sunday:
 
The message of the letter to the Ephesians is directed to the community. Yes to our church, but also to the community of churches that work together to support the Week of Compassion.
It is God's love in us that makes us care enough to support this women-led community garden that provides food  and cash for a local  nutrition clinic. 
And to Care enough to reach out after a tornado caused damage to hundreds of homes in Northern Illinois, Week of Compassion helped provide support for recovery through the Disaster  Recovery Support Initiative.  Sharing our gifts with Week of Compassion is a concrete action step to be loving community as we participate in God's abundance.

En Agape',
Rev. Michael Weeks
