Outreach Day for Back-to-School Fundraiser

Centro Romero is coming to Unity Chicago!

Come learn more about our friends at Centro Romero as they join us for our Sunday service. They will be available to answer any questions and talk about their wonderful organization and our Back-to-School Fundraiser in the social hall before and after our Sunday Service. PLUS we’ll be celebrating our partnership with Cookies & Ice Cream after service!
