A meditation on Hope
The poet, Emily Dickinson, wrote:
“Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul.”
The psalmist declared:
“I put my hope in You all day long.”
Hope is more than wishful thinking.
Hope is the Spirit of God dwelling within us, reminding us we are never alone.
Hope is our active commitment to be God’s faithful people, whether we walk an easy path or face fiery trials.
When we light the candle of Hope, we embrace God’s presence among us, yesterday and today and always.

We are a Christian community of the Episcopal Church in the Diocese of Chicago. We are located in Gurnee, IL.
We strive to live out our core values:
Annunciation is a place...
To be included
To be honest
To be challenged
To be empowered
To find hope
And all saying, "I will, with God's help."
