Welcome to Elk Grove Presbyterian Church!
We are a small, dedicated community of down to earth people who gather together once a week to explore important faith based questions, experience community, and find ways to serve those in need.
If you are seeking a supportive, loving community to walk alongside you on your faith journey, you will find it here. We recognize and affirm everyone regardless of race, class, gender or sexual orientation. There is a hidden potential within you yet to be discovered.
Worship
Every Sunday at 10:15am we come together for worship, music and fellowship. All are welcome!

Lenten Blessings
It is hard to believe we are now in the season of Lent. By the time you read this letter, Easter will be less than 40 days away. This time leading up to Easter is a special time: a holy time. It is a time to prayerfully look inward and seek the truth about what needs to change, what needs to be forgotten, or what needs to be embraced so we can continue forward in the quest for spiritual maturity. This quest for spiritual maturity requires intentional time of quiet and introspection, a time to put aside earthly desires and turn our hearts to Jerusalem to discover God’s desires.

February Newsletter
Thank you to those who have already paid their 2020 Per Capita. For those that have not, your Per Capita for 2020 is $36.00 per member, not household. Per Capita is a set amount of money per member that congregations pay to the larger Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.). It is a Presbyterian Covenant Community Fund — part of the glue that holds Presbyterians together. Because every Presbyterian shares in the benefit of the PC(USA)’s system of government, the expenses associated with coordinating and performing the functions of that system should be shared by everyone as well.
Installation Celebration
Sunday, February 19th we celebrated the blessed Installation of Rev. Dr. Barbara Gorsky. The sanctuary was packed full with EGPC church members, Presbyterian officials, and the friends and family of Pastor Barb. The Installation Ceremony was followed by a very merry gathering in Fellowship Hall. Enjoy some oConstitutional QuestionsCharge &...

Food Pantry News
The Elk Grove Village Administration Building Food Drive is in Full Swing!
Every year the Elk Grove Village Administration Building runs a food drive for one month in late January/February. They run it as a competition between departments. The food is brought over to the pantry weekly during the month long food drive. Items donated have point values and the department that accumulates the most points at the end of the drive is rewarded with a pizza lunch.
