Grace Anglican Fellowship is a gathering of people from all walks of life and denominational backgrounds who meet on Sunday mornings in Lake Forest, Illinois for the traditional Anglican service of worship and communion (Eucharist) and on Wednesday mornings and evenings for Morning/Evening Prayer and Eucharist.
Led by Father Alan Heatherington, our gatherings represent traditional Church values in an atmosphere of loving fellowship. Our music is at the highest professional level while including hymnody, service music and anthems from all musical periods. Our teaching and preaching are deeply rooted in Scripture and faithfully represent orthodox theology. You are welcome! |

Psalm 23
translated/paraphrased by Fr. Alan
The Lord is my Shepherd; therefore I have all that I need.
He lays me down in meadows of tender grass; He guides me to the quiet streams where He refreshes my soul. He guides me in the right paths for the honor of His holy Name, so that, even when I pass through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for You are with me. Your rod and Your staff give me comfort; You spread out a feast before me, far away from those who trouble me. You anoint my head with oil; my cup is overflowing. Surely Your goodness and lovingkindness will pursue me all the days of my life, and my abiding place will be in the house of the Lord, forever. |
