 New Series


       New Series - Starting January 12 - A Study in Ephesians
Many people say they like Jesus but not the church. I understand where they are coming from. But it would be good ask how God feels about the church. When the Bible describes the church, what does God have in mind? Who gets invited? How does it function? Where does the power come from to be a supernatural community? These are questions that we'll explore on Sundays and dig in deeper through small groups.

Trip to Israel

Trip to Israel May 22, 2015 

So is a trip to Israel one of those items on your bucket list? If so this may be your chance to get it checked off the list. Dr. John Walton, Old Testament professor at Wheaton College, has agreed to lead a trip for us in May of 2015. We would leave May 22 and return on June 7. The cost guesstimate is about $5000 per person, which would include air and land travel, accommodations, most meals, and guide services.

We are looking for your indication of interest at this time. The trip will be limited to 40 people, which we expect to fill quickly. If this is something you have been talking about, Cathy and Nick Brait would love to have you join them on what may be the adventure of a lifetime. For more information or to sign on, you can contact Nick at 847-692-4655 or email at braitn@ameritech.net. 

Adult Ministry

Journey 2nd Hour: Letters from Prison - January 6, 10:45am 

Paul wrote the four Prison Epistles while incarcerated in Rome prior to his death. These epistles include Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians and Philemon. These letters reflect a Pastor's heart of love and care for his friends and the churches; They deal with common church and family unity issues. Join us each Sunday morning as we study in depth the background, teaching, and application of these timeless letters.
