CHICAGO LITURGISTS SONG SHARE
Are you a church musician in Chicago? You’re invited to the next Chicago Liturgists Song Share on April 18 at 9:30am at Church of the Resurrection in Wheaton (935 W Union Ave). The Chicago Liturgists Song Share is a friendly gathering to share your own original music and songwriting, as well as pieces that have been impactful in your church context. You are not required to bring music to participate. But, you are welcome to bring your instrument of choice and play along! If you do bring music, please bring enough copies to share with the whole group. After the Song Share gathering, all are invited to stick around and grab lunch at a nearby restaurant, usually around 12:30.

MAKING
JESUS
VISIBLE
Did you know that someone's income in their 20's increases on average by 15% each year they worked as a teen? Skills are obtained, discipline is learned, networks are strengthened and career exposure is increased.
Hood Heroes provides summer employment for students 11-19 years old from Chicago's west and south sides, where poverty is often the norm. In addition to giving young workers a chance to earn income, Hood Heroes employment provides continued mentorship, ownership of their community, positive work ethic and exposure to various career paths.
Help Hood Heroes raise $400,000 to employ and empower 200 Chicago teens this summer! Donate here.
