- “Illini 4000 Project,” : Many thanks to everyone who helped in any way to welcome the IllinI 4000 last weekend. The group was most appreciative of our hospitality, and the members of the local community who stopped by to participate in the "Portrait Project" were quite impressed by the whole operation. We were fortunate to have a great deal of support from the local businesses, the Central Cambria School District, and others in the community as well as generous donations of time, treasure, and talent from members of the congregation. It was very gratifying experience for everyone involved. If you care to follow the progress of the group, you can do so either on their Facebook page or their website: https://www.illini4000.org.
