A church for
the rest of
the week.
This Sunday, Sept 13
Bulletin No. 37
Ordinary Faith, week 3 of 6
The Neighbor Question
A lawyer asks Jesus who counts as a neighbor. Naomi reads the whole parable, then asks who has been one to you this month.
Your first Sunday, 8:40 to 10:15.
We meet in the old Alder Street printworks. The press-room windows are still in, the floor is still concrete, and the coffee is on before the doors open.
Check in the kids
Trained, background-checked volunteers meet you at the courtyard door with a pickup tag.
Sing
About 25 minutes of music. Words on the screen, large-print sheets by the door.
Open Luke
A 30-minute message on one Bible passage.
Stay for coffee
Donuts in the courtyard, and someone at the welcome table to say hello.

The Thursday pantry and Sunday teams
You don’t need your faith figured out to sit with us on Sunday. Questions are welcome here, and so are kids.
When we moved into the old printworks in 2019, the building still smelled like ink. We kept the concrete floors and the big windows, because we wanted a church that feels like the rest of the neighborhood: a little worn in, open during the week and easy to walk into.

meals a month
Every gift keeps the Thursday pantry stocked, the kitchen warm on Sundays and rent paid for neighbors who are a month short. Giving is never required to belong here.
