Please speak with Jeanne in the office (or a council member) if you have pastoral care needs or questions during this time. (I appreciate your prayers. Cards are also welcome – Jeanne can give you my home address. I will be well taken care of by my family and dearest friends, but I will definitely need the three week recovery time post-surgery. Thanks in advance for your well wishes and prayers.)

The church office will be open on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 10am-3pm.

You can reach out to me by email (revctp@unitedinfaith.org) if needed. I continue to keep you in my thoughts and prayers these days as we live as the gathered church in many scattered locations.

 MESSY CHURCH

      Join us for “A New Beginning”

      Sunday, August 7th, 4-6pm

What is Messy Church? Bible-story-based crafts, games, and activities (all interactive and intergenerational) followed by a simple meal shared together. The tag line for the global Messy Church movement is “Church, but not as you know it.”  If you have attended church for a long time, Messy Church may not look like church to you. 

At Messy Church, all ages meet together to learn about Jesus through interactive games, crafts and activities, music, and storytelling from the Bible. A foundational ingredient of Messy Church is to gather around a table for a snack or meal and build relationships with each other, God, and the world.

at United in Faith Lutheran Church, 6525 W. Irving Park Rd., Chicago, IL

Isaiah 43:18-19 “Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; can’t you see it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.”
