Our "Live Nativity" is on Sunday, December 7th from 3 to 5 pm in the front parking lot of Good Shepherd Lutheran Church. We're on the corner of Prospect and Devonshire in Champaign. We will have live music, a live nativity, hot cocoa, cookies and a fire going with fixings for s'mores! All are welcome! #champaignurbana #savoyillinois #ELCA

"Operation Turkey Sandwich" was a huge success and fun was had by all! Congregation and community members came together on Thanksgiving morning to make and distribute nearly 300 bag lunches for essential workers who had to work. A big thank you goes to everyone who helped out and to Dan who organized the event! #elca #champaignurbana #SavoyIL

Thank God by doing God's will: pay workers fairly, help your neighbor, care for the hungry, share the abundance.
In the just reward of labor, God's will is done.
In the help we give our neighbor, God's will is done.
In our world-wide task of caring for the hungry and despairing,
in the harvests we are sharing, God's will is done.
- For the Fruit of All Creation, st. 2
