Join us this year for our Fourth Annual Worship Night! The evening will include prayer, several worship songs, and some reading of Scripture that reminds us of the hope that we have in Jesus amidst whatever season we happen to find ourselves in.

Thursday April 9th

The Moth – 7:30pm – 10pm

Low-key storytelling night! Back by popular demand, The Moth is based off a New York stage production where volunteers share personal stories inspired by a theme. You can come to tell a story or just come to listen. The theme this year is “The Domino Effect.” Basically, a chain reaction of events, where a small thing ends up turning into a big thing, like how your mom joining a bowling league ends with you marrying the love of your life. Looking forward to hearing some great stories!

We will be meeting in downtown Wheaton at Mile Marker 0. It is at Liberty and Carlton. We will push off at 10:45am for any stragglers. Depending on the group, we will confirm a route. But at the moment, we can go out on the Prairie Path north/west to Prince Crossing then connect to The Great Western Trail, where we will turn right (heading east) to County Farm then south towards Geneva. Where we will plan to stop off at the Dairy Queen to get a yummy snack (if you would like (please bring some $$ ).) Then, we will ride back to the starting point. If you don’t want to ride that far, you can meet us in the DQ parking lot. Please just let me know at 630-677-5714. Thanks!
