Important Newsletter Update

We would like to take a minute and thank all who responded to our request about Newsletter subscriptions. For now, we will leave the Newsletter publication as is. It will still be produced 11 times a year and delivered in the mail.

There was also great interest in having it published on the internet. We have done that with the latest edition, which you can click on below and view online. We will not eliminate the mailings but some former subscribers may be removed from the list and have access only on the internet. If we decide that is what will happen, we will notify you.

However, we have not heard from many of you.

So we're asking once again: If you would like to continue receiving our Newsletter in the mail, please call (708) 361-3650 or email centerpalospark@sbcglobal.net to let us know.
We will need to check your mailing information with what we have on file and an email address if you have one.

Thanks once again and keep reading!

The Center has, as its mission, to help people
develop balance in their lives.

Our program is a highly diversified collection of human services sited in a beautiful and convenient location.
That program includes the religious services of The Wayside Chapel with it's weddings, baptisms, and memorial services, Sunday afternoon Vespers services and retreats.

A social service program has as its main emphasis long-term aftercare for alcohol/drug dependant men.
We have an environmental education program that includes resident summer camps, school camps, and a farm set up as an educational unit.
An art program for adults and children that includes painting, pottery, and a number of folk craft classes.

The Center's unifying spirit that holds together all these diverse parts as a whole is the staff and the many volunteers as they attempt to help people reestablish and strengthen the spiritual and emotional foundations of their lives.

It is a place of renewal where all are welcome to participate.
