When We Meet
Sunday worship

Ida Noyes Hall, E 59th & S Woodlawn Ave. Lunch after worship.
This fall we will share in delicious desserts and Prayer Life on Sunday and Tuesday evenings:
Sunday night dinner discussions
6-8pm at rotating homes.
Tuesday dessert discussions
7:30pm at the Beier home (6352 S Ingleside Ave). Rides provided from campus (bradbeier@gmail.com).
Prayer Life is learning to connect with God in a distracting world. Do you pray much? At all? Is prayer a formal ritual or forced recitation of what you think you're supposed to say and others are expecting to hear? This series of discussions will help your life with God to become wiser, more joyful, and a deeper communion with our Father in heaven.

Youth Enrichment Site - Our relational gathering for neighborhood youth, to pass on to them life in Christ with tutoring, fun activities, educational and spiritual teaching. Interested in helping to mentor? please contact Pastor Brad.
