Local ministry reaches out to families

Looking for family friendly action this weekend?

Celebrating more than 30 years as part of Joliet’s faith
community, Redeem Church of God in Christ will offer a weekend of educational,
financial and spiritual empowerment during it’s Family Enrichment Conference
(FEC) ; Friday, September 13th through Sunday, September 15th.

 A series of worship
and recreational events for the entire family, FEC is a combination of
faith-based incentive and real-life assistance. In its eighth year, FEC is a steadily
growing event, having welcomed hundreds of families in previous years. 

“This is something special that we do for the families in
our community,” said Eugene Fears, Jr., Pastor of Redeem Church. “We want to
offer these fathers and mothers a place to gain useful information and support
and offer our children a safe environment to engage in recreation and begin
working toward setting and accomplishing goals.”

Friday’s events kick-off at 6:30pm, Redeem Church 410 E.
Clay Street in Joliet with investment seminars, life affirmation workshops,
goal setting projects for teens and a Bible-land adventure for children.  Friday evening’s worship service will feature
Gospel recording artist and radio personality, Pastor DeAndre Patterson.

Beginning at 10:00 am on Saturday, FEC moves to the Hilton
Hotel and Conference Center (3003 W. Corporate Drive Lisle, IL) for its family
workshops, fellowship lunch and activities for all ages.

Saturday’s events conclude with Family Fun Nite, hosted by the
Smith Family YMCA, 1350 S. Briggs St. in Joliet with a host of recreation
activities for the entire family.

The weekend concludes on Sunday back at Redeem’s main
facility on Clay Street with 12:00 pm and 8:00pm worship services featuring
Grammy Award winning Gospel artist VaShawn Mitchell.

FEC worship services are open to the public. Registration is
required to attend all Saturday events. Adults between the ages of 19-65 can
enjoy the entire weekend for only $60, teens 13-18 for $30 and children 12 and under
