The Nominating Committee would appreciate your help identifying candidates for positions opening in 2022 for Elder, Deacon, Trustee, Nominating Committee, and the Chicago Lights Board.

You can welcome friends and family to join in this online worship experience by directing them here to our website or by sharing the link www.bit.ly/FPCworship.
