Chicago Presbytery took action in 2019 to become a Matthew 25 Presbytery — one of 93 presbyteries in the PC(USA) to do so. We are working to dismantle systemic poverty, dismantle structural racism, and build up congregational vitality.

Around the Presbytery
All are welcome to join in giving thanks for the life and witness of Rev. Carol Allen at a memorial service on Friday, April 10 at 2:00 PM at @fourthchurch of Chicago (126 E. Chestnut Street).
As we gather in gratitude and hope, we commend her life to God’s eternal care and surround one another with prayer. A reception will follow, and all are warmly invited to attend.
On Saturday, the Easter Bunny visited @mayfairpreschicago along with over 80 church and community members for their annual pancake breakfast.
On Sunday, Rev. Jana Blazek preached at Elmhurst Presbyterian Church, remembering that Christ meets us in both the shouts of “Hosanna” and the road that leads to the cross.
Last weekend, senior administrative assistant Megan Hendrickson sang for the Chicago Symphony Orchestra production "An Opera Night with Riccardo Muti" — and appeared on the promotional poster!
During Lent, Rev. Dr. Craig Howard and Rev. Jana Blazek host Thursday conversations to help us discern how to lead and serve in such a time as this.
Thursday, March 26 @ noon on Zoom.
How is the church called to show up in its neighborhood in times of anxiety, division, and uncertainty?
As we conclude our Lenten Lunch Learning series, we’ll gather for a time of shared reflection and conversation. This session will create space to name what you`ve been trying, what has been challenging, and what new ideas you are considering as we move toward Holy Week and beyond.
Come ready to listen, share, and encourage one another as we continue to discern what faithful leadership looks like in these weighty days.
