Kids Sunday School K-5
Sundays Starting Oct 3, 9:15 - 10:15 AM
Digging Deeper Sunday School is back for kids K-5th grade. We'll dig deeper into God's Word as we study Epic Teachings of the Bible-The Ten Commandments. Your child will develop a closer relationship with Jesus and others as we hear about people in the Bible who went through some of the same uncertainties that we face today. The kids will learn to pray in many different ways to the God of Hope who is always with us and calms our fears. Join us on the journey! Nursery and Sing & Play are available for younger siblings; along with 6-12th grade programs for older siblings.

Pastor Kris Whitby presents "Bearing God's Image: Created for Blessings" Workshop
Sponsored by Immanuel’s Foundation, Pastor Kris Whitby of the LCMS Northern Illinois District has developed a workshop for us titled “Bearing God’s Image: Created for Blessings.” Why did God create us in His image? Pastor Whitby takes a deep dive into scripture to help us understand why God made creatures to bear His image, how we lost His image, how God revealed and imparted His image again in Jesus, and how this impacts every aspect of our lives today and the legacy we leave for the future. Click here to see an introductory video with more information. Much thanks to Pastor Whitby and the Northern Illinois District for putting this together for us! The workshop will be presented on Thursday Sep 23 at 7:00 PM and then again on Saturday Sep 25 at 9:00 AM. Feel free to stop in for one of the classes or use one of the links below to register in advance. Child care will be provided. Questions? Email Foundation@ImmanuelBatavia.org or call Penny in the church office at 630.879.7163.
Note: The workshop will be livestreamed on our Youtube Channel if you would like to attend remotely or view the recording at a later date.

Altar Guild Meeting
Sun Sep 28, 7:00 PM
The altar guild will be meeting for the first time since Jan 2020! Anyone interested in serving is welcome to come to the meeting and meet the group. The guild works behind the scenes to prepare worship spaces for services held in the church, chapel, or gym. They are responsible for things like keeping the candles filled with oil, changing the paraments (banners) on the altars, vacuuming and dusting after services, etc. The group is divided into smaller serving teams; there are 3-4 people per serving team that meet every Sunday for one month to serve. The full group usually meets 3 times per year. Traditionally this group is all women, but men are welcome to join if they'd like. Registration is appreciated but not required. Contact Cynthia Evans with questions 630.761.0393.
