Chicagoland Convocation

Around 2900 people came for the 2012 Chicagoland Convocation at Wheaton College.* Though there was light rain off and on through the day, the sun came out from time to time and some even enjoyed picnic lunches before it rained again. Pastors gathered to pray at 8:00 in the morning, as they sought the influence of the Holy Spirit. And these prayers were answered. There was such a sweet spirit among the people who gathered. Our guest musicians commented on this in the evening concert.

People came from many different churches, ethnic backgrounds, and religious backgrounds. We were blessed by inspiring music, personal testimonies, and a variety of calls to let God work within us. If you missed the convocation this year, plan early to be a part of the action in 2013. Click here to order CD/DVD's of the event.  To see more details about what just happened, go to our
convocation web page.

We would like to receive your questions and comments on the Convocation, so that we can improve next year.  Please click on this link to complete an on-line survey for us.  Thank you.

Sale of Broadview Academy
On Wednesday, May 2, 2012, the La Fox property, former campus of Broadview Academy, was sold.
 
A special constituency session was held in February of 2007 to discuss the future of Broadview Academy, which voted to close the school by the end of 2006-2007 school year, and to set up an Education Endowment with the proceeds from the sale of the property for Christian education across the Illinois  Conference.
 
In the ensuing months and years, there were no serious offers on the property . . . (click here to read the entire press release)
