Street Church Redwood City

On November 7, we launched Street Church Redwood City, feeding a hot meal to eight friends who live outside downtown. Last night (Monday, January 23), we fed forty-three people. These friends ranged in age from a child in a stroller to folks old enough to have been the child's grandparents.

Every Monday night from 7:30 to 9ish, we gather outside in a gravel parking lot in downtown Redwood City to do church. Acts 2:42 describes the practices of the early church: "They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers." Street Church is a community that does all these things.

Street Church RWC is an ecumenical effort--faith communities of various shapes and sizes have been participating. I'm thankful for everyone who has been involved in this work of the Spirit. To get involved, send an email to Vicky@streetlifeministries.org (to volunteer to cook food) or to megan@streetlifeministries.org (to volunteer to serve food).
