Rev. Robert Collyer's legacy as both our first minister and a blacksmith embodies resilience and determination, exemplified by the survival of his anvil through the Great Chicago Fire, now a symbol of endurance within our sanctuary. This fusion of vocations underscores our community's values, echoed in "The Anvil," our church newsletter. Through its name, we honor our history while shaping our future, forging connections, celebrating achievements, and offering support. Like the blacksmith's hammer on the anvil, we strive to shape a brighter tomorrow, guided by Collyer's spirit and the enduring symbol of strength.
