Visit
from Bishop and New Members Reception, May 16, 2004
Bishop C. Joseph
Sprague of the Northern Illinois Conference (top row, second from left)
assisted in the reception of new members in the two pictures on the top
row.
Bishop Sprague also
led a discussion during the Sunday School time, delivered the sermon (below
left), and greeted the congregation at a fellowship coffee following the
service (below, center photos).

Confirmation
2003
Students prepared
for confirmation by participating in Bible studies and discussions, visiting
Marcy-Newberry Center to learn about its mission (clockwise from left),
attending a gospel church service in Chicago, serving communion, and planning
a worship service (skit rehearsal pictured). Finally, they officially joined
the church! |

The
Big Puzzle: Everybody Fits In!
After the service one Sunday, the congregation
was given puzzle pieces. First, each person found the correct small
puzzle that needed their pieces (crowd picture at right). Then the flip
side of the small puzzles formed a large puzzle that spelled out our theme
(below). |
