Church World Service Needs Our Help

CWS needs the participation of at least one church in the Illinois Conference.

Link to the complete letter from Matthew Stevens

Thank you so much for your partnership with CWS—especially your ongoing support of the CWS Kits Collection, providing

• CWS Hygiene Kits
• CWS Period Packs
• CWS Kids Kit (Formerly School Kits)
• CWS Cleanup Buckets

I’m reaching out because CWS is working to identify a new CWS Kit Depot (local drop-off location) to replace the Elgin depot, either in Elgin or the greater Chicago area. Ideally, this would be a year-round depot, open at least one day a week during regular office hours.

We still have a strong base of kit donors in the greater Chicago area, and having a convenient drop-off location is critical for keeping that momentum going.

Matthew Stevens, CWS

Is there a church in the Illinois Conference willing to serve as a CWS Kit Depot for these CWS kits?

Storage of kits would include both boxed kits and five-gallon bucket kits stored in a fashion similar to the image pictured. The storage covers about 50 to 100 square feet of easily accessible space that is clean, dry and won't freeze. 

CWS will arrange with FedEx (or similar) for all of the kits to be picked up and forwarded

on a regular basis.  

Thank you for considering expanding your impact on the world!

Are you that church? If you are, contact Rev. Roger Dart, Conference Disaster Response Coordinator, Illinois Conference

UCC Yearbook - Time for Reporting!

United Church of Christ

Due on or before Friday, April 10, 2026

Once again, it is time for the UCC to begin preparing for the coming year’s Yearbook & Directory! We are deeply grateful for your continued efforts to help us maintain up-to-date and accurate data. This year marks our second year using the new UCC Database and Directories (DAD), and we anticipate a much smoother experience.

In case you were unaware:

1. Your church's 501(c)3 status is dependent on a current updated listing in the UCC Yearbook. 
2. When your church is searching for a Pastor you will need current and updated data, which comes from the UCC Yearbook. If no reports have been submitted for your church for five (5) years, all data reverts to zeros.  

The site opened to churches on Monday, January 26th. 

The Yearbook reporting will close for churches on Friday, April 10, 2026. 

Links below are documents from the National UCC office to help you get started.

• Church Yearbook Instructions: DOC | PDF
• 12 Important Reasons to Report Annual Church Data
• Yearbook Report Quick Reference

Thank you for all your hard work in collecting and reporting. Your participation is the ONLY way our records are kept up-to-date. If you need help, please contact Naomi in the Conference Office (708-344-4470 or conferenceadmin@ilucc.org).

UCC Webinar: Leaves of Healing (Only for Some)

Trees, Churches, and Redlined Neighborhoods

Wednesday, March 18, 2026 at 12 pm CT

Creation Justice Ministries has released a new downloadable resource for churches just in time for Earth Month.

The new resource is entitled The Canopy of Creation: Trees, Faith, and the Work of Justice. It invites us to consider the following truth: in many cities, tree canopy follows the same fault lines as historic redlining. Neighborhoods that were denied investment generations ago are often the same neighborhoods with fewer trees today; neighborhoods experiencing higher temperatures, poorer air quality, and greater vulnerability to flooding.

Learn more about this issue and the new resource available to churches in this webinar. Hear from Derrick Weston, the Director of Theological Education and Formation at Creation Justice Ministries.

If you cannot make the live event, still register, and we will send you a recording.

Applied: Faith Formation and Spiritual Practices for Children, Youth, and Adults

Level 2 - begins April 8, 2026

It is a new world for faith formation and church leaders are taking new looks at “how we’ve always done it before.” Let us step out in faith to discover the best ways to nurture all ages in faithful Christian discipleship. Faith-forming ministries in today’s congregations mean more than choosing curriculum materials and recruiting volunteers.

*Child development research shows us that the Sunday School model is not effective in -passing on the faith in today’s culture.

*Volunteers are looking for short-term commitments. Mission and service focuses are desired over study groups.

*Parents are insisting on safety policies and their intentional implementation.

More and more parents wish to keep their infants and children in the service of worship with them.

*People continue to come to church seeking depth and meaning, as well as through their online church experiences.

Summer Academy at Georgetown University

2026 Center on Faith and Justice Summer Academy, Washington, D.C.

June 14-18, 2026

We are currently accepting applications for our 2026 Faith and Justice Summer Academy. At a moment when authoritarian movements are gaining ground and democratic norms are eroding both at home and abroad, we believe that moral and courageous faith leadership is needed more than ever.

Since 2022, the Center on Faith and Justice has run a Summer Academy designed specifically for pastors, seminarians, graduate students, and those serving in ministry at the intersection of faith and public life. The program equips participants with a faith-based vision and practical skills for effective civic engagement, advocacy, and nonviolent civil resistance. It serves as a bridge between academic theology and public prophetic witness, bringing together participants from diverse traditions and Christian theologies.  

The Faith + Justice Certificate Program equips graduate students, seminarians, pastors, and faith leaders with the moral vision and practical skills to engage their faith in civic life and lead their communities in the work of justice. Combining formative content from classroom lectures, workshops, and guest speakers with congressional meetings on Capitol Hill and other experiences in the D.C. area, the certificate program constitutes a transformative, immersive experience that supplements academic learning and faith praxis.

This in-person summer academy occurs June 14 -18, 2026. The program cost is $3000, which includes all meals, lodging, and activities.

For more information about the Summer Academy, including how to apply, please visit the Academy website: https://www.faithandjusticeacademy.com/.
