All Are Welcome

We are farmers and executives, poets and singers, naturalists and postal carriers.
We are liberals and conservatives, pacifists and veterans. We are Christians and Humanists, Agnostics and Theists. We are straight and gay, black and white and everything in between. We believe that we do not have to share the same ideas about God in order to form sacred community and do good work in the world. Won't you join us for an upcoming service or event? We'd love to hear your story.. Please watch this page for more stories about who we are. One thing is for sure – we would love to meet you!

This organization is dedicated to lessening the child victim's trauma by providing a sensitive, collaborative response to the investigation, prosecution and treatment of child sexual abuse and serious physical abuse cases. Alegra Koser, the Executive Director and one of the forensic interviewers from Tyler's Justice Center visited us last Sunday, January 26th and shared information with the congregation about the important work this program provides to the community and tri-county area of Stephenson, Jo Daviess, and Carroll counties. For more information fliers and leaflets are available in the Patterson Room. Tyler's functions solely on grants an donations therefore they are extremely grateful for all that is given. Here are some additional ways we can support Tyler's Justice Center as well: Copier/printer paper Cleaning supplies Toilet paper/paper towels Unopened toys to be used for their gift room for children to select from after a forensic interview Soft blankets for the gift room Books toddler through teen/young adult |
