Thursday, May 26, 2020 on the steps of Deefield Village Hall
In response to the tragic mass shootings at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, TX and at Topps Supermarket in Buffalo, NY and with our hearts always turned toward Chicago, our community gathered with the Deerfield Mayor, local officials, and interfaith clergy to offer prayers of solidarity, comfort, and determination.
Onsite AND Online worship - at the same time, at 9:30am starting in Advent!
God willing and supply chains cooperating, technology accessibility will be installed in our worship space in time for us to incorporate all of our worship into one service on Sunday mornings. The new cameras, sound system, and screen will allow our zoom worshippers to continue to participate and lead worship, and our onsite worshippers to see them and share in the sacred space together.
The new time (9:30am Central time) takes into account the desires and needs of the diverse part of the body of Christ that comes together as StGs Sunday worship community. We will try this time out for a season or two and see how it settles into our rhythm of life.

St. Gregory's Episcopal Church

Deerfield, IL 60015
Welcome to St. Gregory's – virtually! We know that the church is not the building in which we worship – but the people who worship and share God’s love with the world. In this time of social distancing, we will practice connectivity in new and powerful ways, for we know we all are connected as one in the Lord. Life is very different than we knew it to be, and yet our anchor in God’s love remains the same. All shall be well!
Everyone is experiencing the Pandemic in different ways. Many people are experiencing deeper loss than they ever have before, and we are here to support them during this time. If you are experiencing loss and grief, we are here to pray with you, talk with you, and help financially.
The Body of Christ exists to care for each other. Sometimes we can be generous, and sometimes we receive generosity. Both are equal acts of faith and grace, and one cannot exist without the other.
