"Faith That Feeds"
We believe that faith should feed and nurture our spirits.
We believe also that faith should lead us to feed people
in the many different ways they hunger,
both physically and spiritually.

SUNDAY WORSHIP ANNOUNCEMENT |
|
The Seventh Sunday of Easter |
|
 |
|
|
|
Jesus prays that his followers will be one as he and the Father are one.
This oneness is not mere doctrinal agreement or institutional unity, but mutual abiding, interpenetrating life, mutual love, and joy.
This oneness is the work of the Spirit whom we have received but also await. Come, Holy Spirit!

Sunday Worship via Zoom
May 16th Prelude begins at 10:20 a.m.,
Service at 10:30 a.m.
If you would like to participate in Holy Communion, you are invited to prepare a small bit of bread of any sort, and wine or juice if they are accessible to you, creating sacred space. After the consecration of these elements as Christ's own body and blood, we join in communion with a blessing also offered for those not partaking of the elements.
Together we remember Christ’s presence. We are made one body, united across all boundaries of space and time by the one who created us and all things, who came among us as human and conquered death, and comes to us still each day by the wireless power of Jesus’ Spirit!
Zoom Info:
The meeting ID is 927-5679-2666 and Password 280968, phone callers can use the local Chicago number +1 312 626 6799
