Candlelit Music and Prayer at Taizé This Friday, May 25

      
This Friday evening—as on the fourth Friday of each month—we will gather in Buchanan Chapel at 7:30 p.m. for a time of quiet reflection, prayer, meditative singing, and renewal at the end of a busy, noisy week.
       This service in the style of Taizé will be preceded by opportunity to participate in a hosted labyrinth walk in Anderson Hall between 6:00 and 7:30 p.m.

Join Us for a Summertime Encore with Robert Chen

       
Join us for Encore—the fifth annual Center for Life and Learning benefit—on Friday, June 1!
       Robert Chen—Chicago Symphony Orchestra concertmaster—and his family will be joined by Steve Williamson on clarinet and Kuanghao Huang for a delightful concert performance.
        The program, which begins in Buchanan Chapel at 5:00 p.m., will be followed by a reception in the Gratz Center Commons. All proceeds support Fourth Church’s Center for Life and Learning, which offers academic, wellness, and fellowship opportunities for those sixty and over.
       Get your tickets online today and ensure your summer starts with an Encore!
