Your people will rebuild the cities that were destroyed long ago; And you will build again on the old foundations. You will be called the One Who Repairs Broken Walls; You will be called the One Who Makes City Streets Like New Again.
Isaiah 58:12
We are grateful for the planning and leading of this service by Grace and Peace Church of Chicago, Illinois, and pastor Sandra Maria Van Opstal. Grace and Peace Church envisions a community of broken people being restored and raised up by God’s saving grace for all generations. The mission of The Grace and Peace Community is to bring restoration to the northwest side of Chicago by actively living out God’s Word until Christ’s glorious return. Grace and Peace Church is an urban congregation that intentionally embraces and actively reaches out to the northwest side of Chicago in all ethnic diversity.

Music and prayer are prominent elements in worship liturgy. How does the culture of the worship community influence these worship practices? How should we engage culture and yet be countercultural in our practice of music and prayer? Engage with this panel from four continents as we explore how cultural values form and inform worship practices.

Congregations, pastors, and parents/caregivers have many opportunities to join together in worship and prayer practices that more intentionally engage children and help them come to know and love God and grow in faith together. Panelists will discuss ways to intentionally create intergenerational community in which people of all ages, including children, are welcomed as full participants whose participation enriches the community and gives praise to God.
