LIFE AT FAITH
  • Please continue to pray for my daughter-in-law to get a job. God knows their needs. - Pam B
  • I’d like to start-out praising & giving gratitude to God for my brothers and sisters in Christ at Faith Covenant! I likely would not be alive without all the prayers, support, help,and protein & nutritional supplements that help meet my health needs!  I will temporarily be moving to my dad’s in Shorewood, as the new lease in May rent would have become unaffordable and my deep love of my 79 year old father, I want to be with him. However, Faith Covenant will remain my Home Church. I will be Ubering in hopefully monthly. Thank you for livestream, it has been such a blessing. However, I will find a way to attend in person before my move. I ask God to bless each of you for your never—ending support of me! See you soon! - Erika  
  • Pray for everyone traveling or having staycations during Spring Break.
  • Please pray for our pastoral and ministry staff, and all of the Holy Week services and Resurrection Day.  Prepare hearts to hear the gospel story in a new and transformative way.
  • For all of the unspoken prayers, praises, and petitions of the heart.

Infertility Communication and the Church: My name is Laelle Tuggy, a communications student at Wheaton College, currently taking a Human Communication Research course. Our professor, Dr. Rebecca Sietman, is writing a book about discussing infertility within the church community and has created a survey to help collect data. We would love for you to take part in this research, both by taking the survey and passing it along to other Christians who attend church. The survey is anonymous and completely voluntary.
We believe that the more people who take this survey, the more valuable insights we will gain in addressing this significant issue within our churches. You can access the survey through this link: Infertility Communication and the Church. If you have questions, please reach out to our professor or me: rebecca.sietman@wheaton.edu, laelle.tuggy@my.wheaton.edu

A need for reliable transportation has been shared with our church. If you have a vehicle you are considering selling, contact the church office at office@faithecc.org.

Looking for a new home for our upright piano that is in our Aurora home. If you are interested, call Susan Aarseth (630 788 9405) or Janet Partlow (479-404-0134).
