Under the Bridge Movie Showing
​6:00pm in the Sanctuary​​​
To engage our neighbors in sharing concerns and coming up with solutions, we're showing the film Under the Bridge: The Criminalization of Homelessness, a documentary about an encampment community, followed by conversations around the table. Together we identify people we know who currently have some of the risk factors leading to homelessness, share neighborhood concerns, and brainstorm potential community-based solutions.

Come for a BBQ meal, music and fellowship! We are hosting a BBQ lunch fundraiser to benefit the Foy Scholarship, which has been awarding at least one scholarship of at least $1,000 to students of color in the Twin Ports seeking higher education since 2005. This is a way that Peace UCC and St. Mark AME partner to serve our community as multiracial partners in faith. ​
