LIFE ON THE VINE
to experience our community
Weekly Worship Service
Please join us for our weekly worship gathering on Sundays from 10:15 until 11:45am* at
5105 N. Arlington Heights Rd, Long Grove, IL 60047.
You are also welcome to join us a few minutes early for some coffee and conversation.
*First Sundays of the Month: All-Ages Worship Services
If you are visiting with us on the first Sunday of the month, please note that children ages 2+ stay with us for the whole service rather than going to their classes midway through. We start at 10:15 with a breakfast potluck before moving into the sanctuary for our worship service around 11am. If you're visiting with us, no need to bring anything to the potluck. We've got you covered!
welcome
In our noisy, hectic, and divisive world, we are a contemplative, liturgical, and justice-oriented community in the northwestern suburbs of Chicago. You are invited to experience the holy and mysterious presence of God through silence, Scripture, prayer, the Eucharist, and friendship among us. A deeper and fuller life emerges when we connect with God's presence and one another.
our mission
We believe God's love is a non-coercive love. He doesn't overpower us to get his way. Jesus most fully demonstrated this non-coercive love in his earthly ministry, never forcing the Kingdom on others, but inviting with open hands. To connect with God's presence is to have our own hearts converted - to see the belovedness in others, and especially the marginalized, and to join God's loving mission of creating a more just world.
