The Ties that Bind
We're excited to announce that our fall 6-week small group study begins next week and the resources are available NOW for download on the web. We have created a special "covenant" page with all the material you need to lead or participate in your small group. Not in a group yet? It's not too late to form one. Sure, you could do this study on your own but you'll get so much more learning and sharing with others . Anyone can lead, the teaching is included in the videos and discussion questions are part of the study guide. Gather a group of friends to join or others at Atonement that you've been thinking about getting to know. If you have questions about forming a small group, contact Mary Williams, our Minister of Community Formation at 224-655-7211. Here's the link to all the resources: churchofatonement.org/covenant
This fall, we'll be talking about "How to..." beginning with "How to pray with your kids". In addition to exploring concrete strategies for doing these things with your kids, the parenting class will also give you the opportunity to connect with (and learn from!) other parents at Atonement. All parents are welcome, regardless of how old your kids are.
The most important spiritual influencer in a child's life is their parents.
Knowing this, we want to equip and support parents to be the spiritual leaders in their family, a job which we know can often feel daunting, not to mention lonely.

That's why this year at Atonement, we'll be having a monthly parenting class during the 9:15 worship service. This group will meet for the first time on Sunday, September 16.
Do you sing?
The Atonement Singers needs you! Join us for a one-time “give-choir-a-try” event. We’d like to see the biggest possible choir on September 9, singing "Total Praise"—an exhilarating gospel anthem. To participate attend the rehearsal on Saturday, Sept. 8 at 8:30-9:30 am. Sopranos, altos, tenors and basses are all welcome!
