LUTHERAN CHURCH OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
The Church in the Woods
Worship Sunday Services
We joyfully gather weekly at 9:30 AM to celebrate our blessings. The jubilant sound of the organ amidst our beautiful Sanctuary help inspire us to worship and praise our Lord.​
​​Services are live-streamed each Sunday on our YouTube Channel. Previous service recordings are also viewable on our page.
Sponsor a Backpack and Supplies for Foster & Homeless Children
At the end of summer, our own children will have their backpacks blessed for a new school year. Not every child is lucky enough to start the school year with all the supplies they need. Fill a Heart 4 Kids needs sponsors! For $35, you can ensure that a homeless child will receive a backpack with all the necessary supplies for a successful school year. Please mark your envelope with “Backpack Drive.” If writing a check, remember to make it payable to the church. You can also make a donation on our Vanco Simply Giving page.
​
If you would like to join us to pack the backpacks at Fill a Heart 4 Kids on Friday, August 1 from 1-2pm in Lake Forest, please sign up in the Gathering Space or use the Signup Genius. If you have any questions, please reach out to Kari Davenport, 773-844-7542 or karikdavenport@yahoo.com.
All donations are due no later than Sunday, July 27th.
