Our Food shelf, The Corner Shelf, is looking for some volunteers!

Being part of the food shelf team is a fun, lively and very rewarding experience.

Blood Drive

We’ve teamed up with Red Cross to host another Blood Drive in our building!

This is a last call, because it’s happening this Monday, December 2 from 11-5pm.

There are still a few spots left, and we hope to fill ‘em!

Learn more/sign up to give here.

24-Making-Space_goal-800

Making Space Fundraiser

Our 2024 Making Space fundraiser is kicking off!

In 2018, we partnered with Settled, an organization that builds tiny homes for people struggling with chronic homelessness. In the last 6 years, 20 homes have been built in the shop in our building!

This Christmas season, we hope to improve the shop and warehouse space that volunteers use every week by adding bathrooms, a kitchen area, and more storage space. We’re aiming to raise $38,500.

Learn more about this project and how you can contribute here!

Other announcements

Introducing: Theology & Things

Through dozens of Q&A sessions and hundreds of emails, you’ve asked us a wide array of questions. We’ve collected these questions into an online library called Theology & Things. We hope this will be a rich resource for all of us as we learn to love together! Learn more here.

New Series: Seeking Christmas

From the first visitors to the manger until today, people have been seeking Jesus. During our Seeking Christmas series, we join the seekers of Christmas, reflecting on what brought them to Jesus then, and what brings us to Jesus now. 

Gathering Groups + Wrath of the Lamb recap

We wrapped our Wrath of the Lamb subseries last weekend! To recap the series, we asked some of our Gathering Group participants to share how they were thinking about wrath. Read their responses (and learn a bit about Gathering Groups) here!

Pray for Israel/Palestine conflict

It's hard to even imagine the horror going on in Israel and Palestine.

In one of our services, Greg made a point for us to specifically pray that the Spirit could get through to decision makers with ways that make for peace, and that the conflict would not escalate.

He also led the congregation in this group prayer.

"I have found, in you, a place where the preached word profoundly resonates with my own recent journey of faith and has cemented a new way of thinking, I suppose like jigsaw pieces falling into place. I am grateful that a friend pointed me in your direction."
