Join us on Wednesdays this Lent
The Lenten season focuses our hearts and minds on the suffering and death of Jesus Christ for us sinners. Our midweek theme this year — “Return to the Lord” — is based on Joel 2:13 and follows our Lord Jesus Christ to Gethsemane, the palace of the high priest, the governor’s headquarters, and finally to Golgotha. We invite you to join us on Wednesdays for a Divine Service at 10:00am or a candlelight Evening Prayer service at 7:00pm. The evening service will also be live-streamed on our Facebook page. God bless your Lent! “God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life.”
[John 3:16]

Worship Services and Christian Education
We continue to follow the precautions outlined in the Illinois Executive orders pertaining to church services. Sunday and midweek services are held in our spacious sanctuary, where we are seating attendees in every other pew, properly distanced. Bulletins may be picked up at the entrance. Offerings may be submitted electronically or dropped off in the narthex. The Lord’s Supper, available to members of the Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod, is presently being distributed via a continuous line. Restrooms and a nursery are easily accessible and hand sanitizer is located at numerous locations throughout our facility.
Sunday Bible Class is held in our spacious multi-purpose room, where we are seating attendees on groups of chairs (usually 2-4 per group) properly distanced. The children attending Sunday School are grouped by age and following proper precautions at the direction of the teachers. Midweek classes are held in the multi-purpose room and the meeting/education room with proper distancing.
Please stay home if you are experiencing any cold or virus-related symptoms.

Trusting the LORD!
Christians look to and trust in the LORD for every blessing of body and soul. This is true in both good times and bad. We do not live in fear, but in the confidence that the Triune God is good and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love. This frees us to gather together as a church family in our Father’s house, to receive Christ’s gifts in Word and Sacrament, to love and serve those whom He places around us, and to live joyful, hope-filled lives. We’d love to have you journey with us down the narrow path that leads to everlasting life!
