The ministry of SHC is funded entirely by the generous giving of God’s people. You will notice that we do not pass the offering plate; however, there are offering boxes in the back of the auditorium. We believe from the Word of God that the Spirit of God will lead people towards giving back to God of their first fruits. “...God loves a cheerful giver,” (2 Cor. 9:7). Please prayerfully consider what the Lord would have you do.

“Proficiency Test” Luke 9:10-17
Presented by
Pastor Justin Greene
November 1, 2015
Steve Weidner didn’t know what he was getting himself
into when he walked across the playground on his way
back from lunch. On June 2, the 46-year old custodian
at Alan Shepard Elementary School in Bourbonnais,
Illinois, was swarmed by 104 second graders hoping to
get their yearbooks signed.
“It was pretty overwhelming for me with them all
screaming for my attention and waving their yearbooks
in the air,” Weidner told TODAY.com. “But after we
organized a line and I sat down, it ended up being really
fun.”
A photo of the second graders standing in line was
posted to the Bourbonnais School District Facebook
page and on June 5, it was uploaded to Reddit, where
it’s already garnered over 3 million views.
Alan Shepard custodian Steve “Mr. Steve” Weidner has reached Rock
Star status as he autographs yearbooks for his “fans”!
And the students who didn’t have a chance to get their
yearbooks signed outside weren’t left hanging – “Mr.
Steve,” as Weidner is known at the school – went into
classrooms to give out his autograph, and also had
students bring their yearbooks to lunch.
During his 15 years at Shepard, he’s signed students’
yearbooks, but has never had the turnout he had this
year. “He is a role model for the students and someone
they know they can go to whenever they need him –
whether a ball flies over a fence or they get sick,”
principal Shirley Padera told TODAY.com. “No problem
is too big for Mr. Steve.”
Weidner has signed about 300 yearbooks this year and
said that he will continue the tradition for years to come.
“The students are what make every day a joy to go to
work,” Weidner said. “I do it for the kids.”
