The Neighborhood is an open and affirming ministry. Our vision is to question everything, love God, and love neighbor. In the neighborhood, we want to help you make your faith your own, we believe the best way to do this is through being honest about our doubts and wrestling with our questions in a faith community.

A Place to Belong. A Community to Grow. A Faith to Explore.

Whether you’re new to church, exploring faith, or looking to deepen your relationship with God, we’re here to walk alongside you in this season of life.
