Other notes of interest:

We are a peacemaking church and a welcoming and affirming church for our LGBT brothers and sisters. All are welcome, truly.

We welcome also our homeless and mentally ill brothers and sisters. Although some feel uncomfortable in urban settings and around those who are different, really, it's not an unsafe place to visit. We have our children here, after all.

Dress tends towards the casual and laid back, although if you tend towards wearing your Sunday Best, you won't be turned away. Leave any worries and hostilities at the door, please.

Y'all come.
