Grace Lutheran Church

493 Forest Ave, Glen Ellyn, IL

Time: 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.

The church has a small parking lot, which they try to leave open for people with limited mobility. (Note that access to that parking lot is from Forest, which is one-way going north.) There is also ample street parking nearby. The church is an easy one-block walk north of the Glen Ellyn Metra station. Train station parking is free, as is a small lot just west of Grace on Pennsylvania, plus there is available street parking on Forest Avenue.
