Reviews
From people who visited
“We slipped in the back at eleven and left at the end without anyone cornering us. The next week we came back and stayed for coffee.”
Nathan and Erin P., Visited in March
“The kids check in took two minutes and our four year old asked to go back.”
Alicia G., Eastown
“I came for the Thursday pantry, not the service. They treated me the same as anyone else on a Sunday.”
Ray W., Neighbor
FAQ
If this would be your first visit
What should I wear?
Whatever you own. On a normal Sunday you will see jeans, work clothes and a few suits. Nobody is checking.
What do you do with kids?
Kids from birth through fifth grade check in at the desk in the lobby and get a matching tag. They are released only to the adult holding the other half. Kids are also welcome to stay with you in the service.
How long is the service?
About seventy minutes, with music, a reading and a thirty minute message. The 9am tends to be quieter and the 11am fuller, but the content is the same.
Is there parking?
A lot behind the building holds about 90 cars, and street parking on Wealthy is free on Sundays. Accessible spots are next to the elevator entrance on the north side.
