The Northern Illinois Synod Office will be closed on Monday, September 1st, in observance of Labor Day.
If you need to reach a member of staff while we are closed, please call the Northern Illinois Synod at (309)794-4004 and leave a message or email office@nisynod.org. A member of staff will get back to you the following day.
A prayer for Labor Day:
Almighty God, your Son Jesus Christ dignified our labor by sharing our toil. Guide us with your justice in the workplace, so that we may never value things above people, or surrender honor to love of gain or lust for power. Prosper all efforts to put an end to work that brings no joy, and teach us how to govern the ways of business to the harm of none and for the sake of the common good; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. (Evangelical Lutheran Worship, p. 78)
