Welcome to Atonement
Welcome to the Church of the Atonement, an Episcopal church in the Anglo-Catholic tradition. For more than 135 years, Atonement has been a witness to the Gospel of Jesus Christ in our Edgewater neighborhood and in the wider community. Today, we continue in that witness as an active, visionary, and inclusive congregation that serves God through daily prayer and worship, the practice of lifelong Christian learning, and ministries of outreach and justice.
Whoever you are, and wherever you are in your walk of faith, you are most welcome here. Your presence, your faith, your prayers, and your questions are wanted here. Your gifts and your energy are needed here. You are invited to come and see what God has in mind for you.
Parish Forum: Approaches to Miracles

Our parish forum Sunday morning at 10 a.m. in the Elizabethan Room will be a discussion with Richard Kieckhefer on Approaches to Miracles. In the spring quarter at Northwestern, Kieckhefer has been teaching a class on miracles in comparative perspective—miracles in Greco-Roman antiquity, in medieval and modern Christianity, in Judaism and Islam, Hinduism and Buddhism, medical examination of the miracles at Lourdes, miracles adduced in support of canonization, voices of skepticism and doubt, and the relationship between miracles and magic. In this forum we will look at some of the ways miracles feature in different religious traditions, different ways of looking at miracles, and the ways people today respond to miracles, taking the undergraduates at Northwestern as a case study.
