Help with Children or Youth

If you are considering helping with children or youth formation at Grace, this is a good time to get connected! We are looking for Sunday School teachers and volunteers and adults to be involved with youth ministry starting in September. Please contact Damaris Cami (children’s ministry), Becky Edwards (youth ministry) or Pastor Ryan for more information. Volunteers working with youth or children at Grace must undergo a Child Safety Policy training and background check.


Pray for 4S Retreat

Please pray for the youth on their retreat from July 27 until July 30. Please pray that they will slow down, be still, serve others and be surprised at God’s work. They will be staying at the church and take short trips around the area each day for activities and service projects.


Faith Going Public

The church is planning to celebrate the sacrament of baptism on August 29th. If you would like to make your relationship with God through Jesus Christ public through believer baptism, please contact Pastor Mandy at pastormandy(at)gracechurchchicago.org or (773) 478-0208.
