BURNHAM FELLOWSHIP
Apply by July 15th for the Burnham Fellowship. This 9-month cohort provides theological, spiritual, and relational discipleship for meaningful and sustainable integration of faith and work in our urban context. The Burham Fellowship is led by Faith & Work Chicago. Learn more and apply here.
GEN Z REPORTS
While 79% of Gen Z feel a sense of belonging in their families and with their friends, only 65% feel they belong in their faith communities. As belonging diminishes around ages 16-17, building trust takes longer. Read the following reports to understand more. Thanks to TenX10 for compiling this helpful information!

CHICAGO SCHOOL BOARD ELECTIONS
With the first-ever Chicago school board election, the church has an opportunity to make its voice heard. Read more from Chris Butler and AND Campaign Chicago here.
“Why are you so silent? That’s the question that I felt rising up in my spirit as I thought about how a lot of civil society organizations I know have been engaging with the upcoming Chicago Public School Board elections in November…and the church … well … hasn’t.”
