In light of the recent cuts to SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) funding, many of our neighbors are facing heightened food insecurity. Linked below is a database of local resources if you would like to contribute to the good work these organizations are doing. 

Immanuel Presbyterian Church in Warrenville has a food pantry open on Sundays from 1-3 PM and Tuesdays from 11 AM to 1 PM. 

For those in our church who are affected or otherwise need financial assistance, Faith Covenant has a benevolence fund. We are here to help. Please reach out to the care team at careteam@faithecc.org. 

If you are able to help, please bring one or more of the listed items to donate. You can drop off the items by the Community Hub.

Christmas Dinner is coming up and we are looking for entertainment! Do you have a hidden talent? Perhaps you have a really good rendition of Justin Beiber's Mistletoe or maybe a ventrilaquist dummy who can recite all of Luke 2. Whatever it is, let us know by emailing pastor@faithecc.org.

We’re excited to celebrate new life in Christ at our upcoming Baptism Sunday! If you’ve recently decided to follow Jesus or have never been baptized, this is a beautiful opportunity to take that next step of faith. Join us in witnessing and supporting those making this public declaration of their faith.

If you are interested in being baptized or have any questions, connect with Pastor Nate.  

What a blessing to have a full sanctuary and a full parking lot! We encourage you to park at the Northwestern Medical parking lot to leave room for our guests. We have permission to use this parking lot. 

We are so excited to welcome new members to our church. Stay after worship on November 30th to help greet and welcome these new members to our church family.

Brad and Lucie Kaspar serve with Josiah Venture in the Czech Republic. They equip and encourage youth leaders to reach out to students who do not know Christ and meet with students who are eager to grow in their faith.
Please pray:

• For youth leaders Libor, Betka and David to remain spiritually strong and healthy as they serve young people.
• For us and youth leaders to keep our eyes lifted to see God's fields which are ripe for harvest.
• For guidance as parents in pointing our children towards Christ.
• For an end to the war in Ukraine – we’ve been there four times now and it is heartbreaking to see the destruction and pain it causes everyone.

Send Brad and Lucie a word of encouragement at bkaspar@josiahventure.com

Friendsgiving Testimony Night: Come give thanks with us on November 21st at Compass Church South Naperville, as we listen to the testimonies of God's work in the lives of the residents we serve. There is no cost to attend, this is simply a night to give thanks and encourage men sharing their stories. Food will be provided and doors open at 6:30pm. Please contact Ray Hinsch if interested in attending.

Looking for Affordable Housing: Many of you may know that I was looking for new housing arrangements last year before my lease expired. It now has become a necessity to find an affordable place to live.  I have lived independently, but at this time would prefer renting a room w/in a home, sharing an apartment w/ someone else you may know, or at the very least a more affordable single studio or one bedroom apartment.
My hope is "this new living arrangement" to remain in the area of Wheaton or close by so I don't lose Faith Covenant and that doesn't require me to find a whole new medical team, losing the great providers I have now. I also no longer can afford my rent as I have had to cut my hours at work due to health needs.
If you know of anyone in a similar situation or are aware of a more affordable apartment, would you please contact me at 847-331-5644, thank you, Erika Stahl
