Caring Connections Ministry Appreciation & Training Event
 The Caring Connection Callers Ministry keep our church family connected by phone, email, visits, and flower delivery.

We have heard that this ministry is very much appreciated by both the giver and the receiver.
Please consider joining this ministry as a way to care for and connect with our church family. If you are interested in joining this ministry or know someone who would appreciate a visit, please contact the church office at 630.968.7120. Or, if you know of members who would like to receive a connection, please contact Rosie Roose or Pastor Anna.
