June 28, 2010 Trinity Grace Church
We found a great group of people yesterday at this church in our neighborhood. It meets in a beautiful old Lutheran church on E 84th Street. The sanctuary is lined with stained glass, and there is an awesome neon cross bolted to the facade. Sorry, you can’t really see it in the picture.
People at this church literally surrounded us. We ended up going to dinner with a few couples and felt immediately welcome. The usual awkwardness never really showed up, which was a nice surprise. I think a brief moment of tension over theology between me and one the leaders had Amber on edge for a second, but besides that it felt great. We can’t wait to go back. Oh, and they preach the gospel.
Thanks to Manika for showing us this wonderful group!

So glad you have found somewhere to dig in! Matt and I think we may have found somewhere in OH, too. It’s such a relief (and praise!!)! 🙂

In the grand scheme of things, the neon cross affixed to the exterior is probably more important than what goes on inside, anyway.

thanks for noticing, Carter. That neon cross is the only thing about this post that I enjoyed reading.
