Halloween Posters

We have created some posters to share the light of Christ during Halloween.  These posters will be hanging in the window of the Nina Larson Ministry Home along with some flashlights imprinted with the Grace Covenant Church logo as well as our church website.  Feel free to download these posters to use at home or to shrink them down and hand them out this year!

Prayer Walk on Sunday

In response to this increasing violence, Pastor Mandy will be leading a prayer walk around the block during the sermon time of our worship this Sunday (rain or shine). Anyone who prefers to stay in the sanctuary to pray may do so. Children will remain in Sunday School. Parents who desire for their children to join the walk, please take your children upstairs at the beginning of the service.


Community Alert

The 4100N blocks of Monticello and Central Park Avenues are experiencing a dramatic increase in gang-related violence. We advise our congregation to park in the 4200N blocks. Be careful walking south toward Irving Park Road.
