Alka's Angle

  • In just about a month, the kids will be back in school (CPS is scheduled to open August 26th) so we are focused on getting our backpacks ready to be donated...

     


  • My heart is full this week- with many emotions and feelings- some joy-filled and some challenging but such is the nature of life! The challenges are that-

     


  • As I said a few weeks ago, among many things that happen at Annual Conference is what is called the ‘fixing of appointments,’ and the Bishop and the cabinet decided to re-appoint me to Broadway, so for at least one more year we get to do ministry together. I say one more year because in our denomination, as itinerant pastors, our appointments are only for one year- every year we find out if we get to stay or relocate.

     


  • This week is the PRIDE PARADE! And like every other year, we will participate in the Parade this year also but in a slightly different way.

     


  • June is also PRIDE MONTH! As I have shared before, this year PRIDE WORSHIP will be hosted by us on Sunday, June 30th at 9:30am. We will be joined by many other United Methodist Churches and churches that are part of the Chicago Coalition of Welcoming Churches.
