Being a downtown church, every one has a crummy parking spot. It’s all street parking. We used to have an agreement with NCR to use their parking, then they sold their building. Eventually the RCC archdiocese bought it. And we couldn’t come to and agreement.

For What? An expresso at the “He-Brews” bar?

What else do you wait in line for at a church?

Yes, we also enjoy the challenge of having no parking lot, just street-side parking. I praise God for many church members who overlook this inconvenience to assemble together regardless. It is a very precious thing. I know that they are intentional about being there, and are not present because it is convenient!
