Wicker Park Lutheran Church has been at the corner of Hoyne & LeMoyne since 1879. The current building dates from 1906 and presents limitations to how the community can gather. We are embarking on a $1.4 million+ campaign to address these limitations in the second phase of a $3.6 million project. Below you can give to support this important campaign through Wicker Park Lutheran Church or the separate non-religious non-profit called Wicker Park Lutheran Building Friends. Learn more about the campaign here.
