Dear Communitarians:

 Yesterday was the first Endless SummerFest “All Together Under The Son” worship service since pandemic guidelines cancelled the event in 2020, and then again in 2021. In 2022 the festival returned, but a massive shortage of event personnel made logistics for the worship service impractical. This year the Ministerium of Greater La Grange started preparing earlier, and after agreeing to cover additional stage and security costs through contributions from some of our churches, we returned for the celebration.

 Our first Endless SummerFest worship celebration in 2016 was organized by Steve Palmer, who considered the weekend festival to be his baby and envisioned a Sunday ecumenical gathering as part of the event lineup. Steve contacted
