What to expect
A friendly face at the door, about seventy minutes of live music and a message from the Bible you can follow, and coffee afterward. Come as you are. No one will ask you to stand, sign or speak.

Baptism Sunday
If you have decided to follow Jesus, this is how you say so in front of the people who love you. Sign up on the connect card or ask any pastor.
-
The Long Table
One enormous table, one citywide dinner and no agenda. Come hungry. Bring a dish if you can, or just bring yourself.
From our pastor
You were expected.
If this is your first time looking us up, I want you to know something before you ever walk through the doors: you were expected. Someone here has been praying for the person who would find us this week, and that person might be you.
Lantern Row is not a performance and it is not a club. It is a family with a long table in a busy city, and we keep adding chairs. You do not have to believe everything we believe to sit down. You only have to be willing to be welcomed.
Come on a Sunday, watch a message from home, or write to me directly. I read every note.

Generosity
Generosity is how a city gets loved.
Your giving keeps the doors open, the kids' rooms staffed and the lights on for neighbors who need a hand. Giving is for those who call this church home. Guests never need to give.
Secure giving through Planning Center Giving.
This Sunday
Your seat is saved.
Tell us when you are coming and we will email you directions, parking tips and the name of someone to look for at the door.
