9th Annual Love Your Neighbor Day
September 16, 2023
Love Your Neighbor Day seeks out members of our community who need help maintaining or repairing their homes, but don't have the physical ability or financial ability to do so themselves.
We also seek volunteers to do the work!
Homeowners' applications are due by August 12, 2023
Volunteer forms are due by September 3, 2023.
Pentecost
Special Offering
May 21 & 28
In the beginning, every church was new. It's right there in the book of Acts. God was doing a new thing: creating a movement for wholeness in a fragmented world.
At New Church Ministry, we believe God is calling the whole Church back to becoming new… back to becoming who we are: a movement for wholeness in a fragmented world.
Your gifts to the 2023 Pentecost Offering help ensure our movement continues to embody the Disciples of Christ vision: to be and to share the Good News, witnessing, loving and serving from our doorsteps to the ends of the earth. Give online now or through your church offering. Thank you.
FIND COMMUNITY
We are the Christian Church of Villa Park called to embody God’s love – a love that embraces, liberates, and empowers – in relationships with all we encounter, whoever they are and wherever they find themselves on their journey of faith. We work to build community, to be in relationship with one another through the Spirit. We seek to do the work to which we are called with compassion, creating a space for all to share the radical welcome that we have received through Christ. We strive to answer God’s call to build community inside and outside our walls, being “imitators of God, as beloved children, and live in love, as Christ loved us.” (Eph. 5:1-2)
