Help for International Garrett Students
As we continue to look for ways to support international students, the Immigration Team of the NIC Conference Commission on Religion and Race has been presented with an urgent need.
Sunday, Sept 19 @ 3 pm
Reconnect with God and each other in this Ravinia-style worship. As the NEW Lake North District, we hope you’ll join us for a time to gather and worship outdoors!
Bring your own lawn chair and/or blanket, plus an afternoon snack or late lunch/early dinner. Come to see old friends and meet new friends, come to worship and praise God together!
Our offering will go to First Vietnamese, as the inside of their building has been destroyed and needs to be completely repaired.
NOTE: We will worship indoors if needed, according to the weather.
No registration required, but please email Debbie with questions at drogers@umcnic.org or 630.465.2941.
