Worship is Essential!
Thanks to Dave Kurowski for making it possible for us to gather virtually in these days when we cannot gather large groups in person. We are evaluating next steps and receiving guidance later this week from the Metro Chicago Synod. As noted a few weeks back, large Sunday morning gatherings will not happen in this phase. Thanks to Dave’s hard work and the work of our musicians, we will still be able to be together!
St. Andrew's Food Drive
Thank you to all who helped with last week's emergency food drive to provide support to the overwhelmed pantries in West Chicago. We will continue to work with area pastors and Pastor Josh at St. Andrew to put a structure into place that streamlines the process for food drop-off and distribution. Hopefully, we will be able to continue to help meet the needs in West Chicago on a weekly basis. We will keep you posted.

Sacraments and Physical Distancing
 Sacraments: thinking about baptism and Holy Communion when we are physically distanced. Sacraments are all about making Jesus tangible…how do we do that when we can’t be within 6 feet of each other?
Bible 102:
The Gospels
Take a deeper dive into the stories of Jesus and learn how each unique story adds up to one incredible witness to who Jesus is.

GLC life in pictures
Last Friday's PDO drive-by parade was full of sweet surprises as parents and their children drove by to wave goodbye to their teachers. So glad we could end the school year with this special event!

We've said it before, but it bears repeating "We miss seeing our GLC family!" If you have a picture(s) that you'd like to share of how you are living your #generouslifeinChrist please send to Margo . Thank you!
