Grace United Methodist Church of Logan Square is a Reconciling Congregation that is building "Community" in the midst of economic and social forces which attempt to undermine human potential. Our Mission is to assist our fellow members and church participants to witness to the sanctity of human life by extending a welcome to all, by developing inclusiveness and embracing diversity that extends the love and peace of Christ, and by promoting activities for social and spiritual growth.

Our worship services take place Sundays at 10:00am, we have open table communion every first Sunday of the month.

Ninth Sunday after Pentecost

Shameless Intention

Sunday, July 25th

 

"To a great degree, we live under the illusion that as separate, distinct individuals, we cannot effect change in other people. Only God can do so, we think. The truth is that we live in an invisible ocean of Spirit, one that connects us all together, and so our energy expressed as intention, as loving thought and emotion, as care and empathy, actually travels across or through the invisible spirit reality of God, to surround the other person. All of that loving energy does, indeed, effect positive change, even if at only a very subtle level. Praying for other people, then, is a very powerful way to effect change." (From "The Uniting Spirit of Prayer" p. 85)

While you're here worshiping with us, stay and contemplate the art display Ag47 is sharing with us.
