All Saints Parish
Business Name
Business Genre
Long Business Description

Church attendance and interest in religion is waning in most places around the country. It's not just Millennials, but people of all generations who often walk into churches looking to find faith but come up empty. We think that's because people are looking to find a lived faith. No longer is passively subscribing to a system of belief a compelling enough reason to belong to a church. People are looking for the kind of faith that Jesus himself was looking for – active and alive in all that we say and do, and made available to and through each and every one of us. That's why our identity statement at All Saints' is "To be the Church of Jesus." We believe that hope for the Christian faith, hope for the church, hope for the world is happening right here at All Saints'. We are not merely passive observers of faith. We are dynamic, progressive purveyors of Good News. All Saints' is a place that's alive and beating with relevance for the hope of our world. Through our active ministry with homeless and food-insecure people at the weekly Monday Meal, to serving a monthly brunch to homeless and runaway LGBT youth to reuniting children with their parents in prison through Get On The Bus, we actively live our faith on a daily basis ... it's how we work to be the Church of Jesus.

Beth Chayim Chadashim is a progressive and diverse community of people who come together to celebrate Jewish faith and culture. Started in 1972, we are the world's first synagogue founded by, and with an outreach to, lesbians and gay men.

Our name means "House of New Life," and our services, social gatherings and broader activism work in concert to make our community unique and live up to its name.

Glendale City SDA Church
Business Genre
Long Business Description

Glendale City is a Christian church affiliated with the Seventh-day Adventist denomination. Our congregation was one of the first Adventist churches established in this part of Southern California. We continue to partner with this denomination locally and globally in its mission. We recognize the many ways our denomination brings good into the world. We also recognize that as a human organization, our denomination, and Glendale City Church itself, makes many mistakes and is often slow to respond to God's leading. Therefore, we maintain a congregational posture of humility.

Long Business Description

Not So Churchy

The Not So Churchy worshipping community is intimate, portable, and spiritually curious and committed. We worship monthly and gather for education, spirituality groups, service and community events.

We thrive when we are connected, but not too connected, to the traditional church. We are artists, community activists, and musicians. We are adults and kids.

We are lesbian, bisexual, transgender, queer, and straight allies. We bring all of ourselves, the stuff we like and the stuff we aren’t so sure of.

There is always laughter
You might feel calmer leaving than you did coming in
Each gathering is a little bit different, created with care and for the moment

There is space for change, room to grow, and an experience that's Not So Churchy.

St. John’s Lutheran Church
Business Genre
Long Business Description

St. John's Evangelical Lutheran Church has existed on Christopher Street in Greenwich Village since 1855. Although Germans settled mainly in the area east of the Bowery, there was a community in Greenwich Village which existed until the end of World War I. The Federal-style building with a domed cupola, built in 1821–22 for the Eighth Presbyterian Church, is one of the oldest religious buildings in Greenwich Village. In 1842, the property was sold to St. Matthew's Episcopal Church, who worshiped here until 1855 when it was turned over to the German Lutherans. Victorian features were added in 1886 by Berg & Clark, and the pediment was inscribed, "Deutsche Evangelish-Lutherische St. Johannes Kirche." St. John's is within the Greenwich Village Historic District of the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission.
