The women of Good Shepherd and other local WELCA members had an amazing brunch this morning at the new St. Andrew’s student center at the University of Illinois! We were the first group to use the space which just opened a few days ago! We had a tour of the incredible space and sang Christmas carols in the new sanctuary! It was a beautiful morning! #champaignurbana #savoyillinois #elca

Thank you to everyone who helped with "Operation Turkey Sandwich" last week. We made almost 300 sack lunches and gave them to essential workers and others who didn't have the day off! It was a lot of fun for all! #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

Happy New Year! November 30th is the First Sunday of Advent and the first Sunday of the new church year. Join us for worship as we light the first candle of the Advent wreath, prepare for our Lord's coming, and hear the message to "Stay awake!" Worship begins at 9 AM. There will NOT be Sunday School, Adult Forum, or Dwelling Together this Sunday due to the holiday weekend. #elca #champaignurbana #savoyillinois
