Last week we had the pleasure of celebrating what God has done through NCF Chicago over the course of the last year! We heard from several members of the NCF Chicago team and a special appearance from Mark Shiller. We cherished the opportunity to celebrate the amazing work that God continues to do throughout Chicagoland!

Last Friday, NCF Chicago sponsored an impactful gathering with the CHICAGO FELLOWSHIP, bringing together 200 men from across Chicagoland. We shared life, explored the Bible, and supported one another in following Jesus. As Jon said on Friday "The real magic is in building relationships—no commitment required, but true value comes when we dive deep into meaningful friendships." Grateful for this community and its growing impact!

The NCF Chicago team joined 2,000 volunteers to help pack 500,000 meals in honor of 9/11. It was a humbling experience to give back, turning a day of remembrance into one of hope and service. We were grateful to help sponsor this amazing event. A big thank you to 9/11 Day for organizing it and allowing us to be a part of such a meaningful day!

We're excited to share a series of events coming up this weekend, featuring Hall of Fame Coach Tony Dungy and Fox Sports’ Chris Broussard. Whether you’re in the Northshore, Western Suburbs, or Chicago, join us for a day of conversation centered around Faith, Work and Football. We’re excited to see you there!

Watch as Jack and Connie describe their journey together, and the joy of generosity that they’re finding along the way.
