Our July Helping Hands offering supports Any Positive Change,a racially and ethnically diverse group composed of people living with HIV and drug use, working in addiction treatment, healthcare, education, law and other assorted areas. Their work entails building one-on-one relationships with individuals affected by HIV and drug use and provides them with a wide array of options for achieving any positive change as they define it for themselves.

You can also mail a check to the church office – just be sure to put “Helping Hands” in the memo line.


Dorothy Holmes, who joined us in worship last week, is wrapping up the final weeks of her School Supply Drive! 

She does this work – and the Christmas gift drive, which Outreach supported last year – in memory of her son, Ronald Johnson III, who was shot & killed by Chicago Police in 2014. Learn more about his story here.
