Coffee on the Corner Outreach
May 17, 2026
Join us at “Coffee on the Corner,” where free coffee flows as smoothly as the conversations. Sip, chat, pray for and get to know our Near North neighbors—because the harvest is plentiful and the laborers (and coffee servers) are few!
We meet at the corner of Oak and Larrabee on Thursday mornings from 7:45 – 9:00am (weather permitting) and serve “Free Good Coffee” to all who stop by.
Journey of Generosity
May 2, 2026
Journey of Generosity is a mini one-day retreat (9 AM to 2 PM) at Park Near North, focused on biblical generosity.
Discussion will be led by a trained facilitator. You’ll hear stories from real people, have intentional time to listen to the Holy Spirit, and explore what it looks like to live with biblical generosity in every area of your life.

Night Church
Fridays, 7 PM | DEVON AND OAKLEY
How can we show up for those in our communities? By being available, being present, and being light in the darkness.
Night Church in Chicago was created to have the gospel and people of God mobilize during the night hours to share the love of Jesus.
Alpha
Alpha is an 11-week course that creates a friendly, open, and informal space where people can come and discuss life’s big questions. Each week is centered around a short talk and a discussion at the end where you can share your thoughts and ask questions. No question is too basic or too big.
Our first session of Alpha is more of a look and see, or, a session to feel out if you’d like to join us for the next 10 weeks. If it looks interesting to you, we would love for you to keep coming! Alpha sessions will be held at Park Near North on Tuesday beginning April 12 from 6:45-9 PM.

Park’s Daily Prayer
Join us for daily prayer at noon over zoom.
Like our fellow citizens, Christ followers are alarmed at all violent protests in our cities. Any work for Christians to renew Chicago and beyond will necessarily begin with prayer.
