| For more
than 40-years Fourth Church has reached out to its Cabrini neighbors
with programs like Partners in Education Tutoring. While the neighborhood
is changing with the Chicago Housing Authority’s Plan for
Transformation, we continue to hear a call and see opportunities
to be involved in important ministry.
With a growing presence in the community we hope to help bridge
the gap between people of diverse backgrounds and needs. We are
committed to being a positive presence and resource for this developing
neighborhood, offering fellowship opportunities and social service
programming.
We now host the Chicago Avenue Community Garden drawing children
and adults from the neighborhood to garden side by side with Fourth
Church members. As we bring the full Project Light vision to life,
we will build a community center on our Chicago Avenue property,
providing space for comprehensive programming as well as community
group gatherings and worship. The Chicago Avenue center will be
designed to serve as a community anchor and beacon of hope and understanding.
