Below is the September Newsletter for the First Presbyterian Church of Champaign.  Lots of exciting things this fall…

• Faith in the Real World series resumes this Sunday, September 12, at 10:15 am in the Sanctuary.  This Sunday Matthew Storie will talk about jazz and faith…you might even hear a little saxophone.
