Weekly WILD update
Week 1 is in the books – and the team is rolling through Week 2!
Debbie Southorn reports that the coordinating interns are doing a great job leading the program – and that it’s been more energizing than exhausting thus far.
Please join us for their graduation ceremony at
6pm on Thursday, July 28th
at Grace Place ~ 637 S. Dearborn, Chicago, IL
You can RSVP here!
One of the programs the interns will be involved with is the Final Five campaign – working to shut down the five remaining youth prisons in Illinois.

Have questions about the program? Feel free to reach out to someone on the WILD Wellington Working Group – Jim Morris, Karen Graham, Kryss Chupp, or Shelby Hatch.
Coming Soon!
What’s Up?
Congregational Life
Thursday, July 21st from 6:30-9pm
Jeff Tweedy and the Students of The People’s Music School Live in Concert at Pritzker Pavilion
Pack a picnic & come join folks from Wellington at a lovely summer outing! Chris will arrive early to save space for Wellington people.
The People’s Music School is our partner organization for paying reparations for Negro spirituals, so this is a great opportunity to hear their students open for Jeff Tweedy & play alongside him.
Interested? Let Chris or Brenda or Donna know!
At the June Congregational Meeting, we voted to focus this next year on finding a more permanent home for Wellington.
That raises lots of questions like –
What kind of worship schedule do we envision in our future?
Do we ever see ourselves returning to weekly
in person/hybrid services?
Are we interested in a shared space?
If so, how often would we want to use it/have access to it?
The Worship Committee invites anyone interested in discussing these questions to join us at our next meeting ~
6pm on Monday, August 1st!
We’d love to include as many voices as possible in the conversation, so please come if you can!
Join by Zoom or in person.
