If the parking lot is full, continue down Kemper, turn right on Orchard and turn left at Fullerton. Take Fullerton west into the left turn lane at the stop light at Halsted and Lincoln. Turn a hard left onto Lincoln and go south to the Lincoln Commons Parking Garage. Turn right into the parking for additional parking. Then walk across Lincoln and south to Orchard, turn left and walk a half block to the church sanctuary entrance.
