Vesper


Restored in Christ

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

Our God Reigns

Creo en ti / I Believe in You

Way Maker

Your Great Name

Al que está sentado en el trono

No hay un lugar más alto

Here As in Heaven


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.
