In October 2023, Tom Are Jr. came to be with us as our Interim Pastor, a ministry that he began with a welcome and introductory video.


Now twenty months later, Tom is retiring, with this Sunday, June 15 being his last at Fourth Church.


Before he leaves, Tom has one more video message to share with the Fourth Church family.

Video message from Tom Are Jr., Interim Pastor

Tom and Carol’s final Sunday with us will be this Sunday, June 15.


We invite you to be with us in worship at 10:00 a.m. and then, following the service, join us in Anderson Hall for a special Coffee Hour reception in their honor.

If you would like send messages of gratitude and well-wishes to Tom and Carol, you can do so by



  • mailing an envelope to Tom Are, c/o Allison MacDonna, Fourth Presbyterian Church, 126 E. Chestnut St., Chicago, IL 60611.2014


We will then compile all messages received by June 30 and present them to Tom and Carol — as an expression of this community’s gratefulness, special memories of their time with us, and best wishes for their retirement.
