"A Place for All" Campaign

Wicker Park Lutheran Church has been at the corner of Hoyne & LeMoyne since 1879. The current building dates from 1906 and presents limitations to how the community can gather. We are embarking on a $1.4 million+ campaign to address these limitations.

This phase will better (1) welcome diversity with an elevator and ADA-accessible, gender-neutral bathrooms, (2) preserve and restore our historic architecture, and (3) enhance community spaces.

We’re well on our way to hitting the goal with multiple grants and numerous individual donors. Your support will ensure historic architecture and community engagement will continue for generations to come!

Fourth Sunday in Lent

Who has heard today’s gospel reading before? Who knows it by the title “the prodigal son?” Many people know this story from that perspective based on a section heading in the Bible. We need to remember that the section headings aren’t in the original Greek text– they are added by the editor of whatever version of the Bible you’re reading…
