NORTH MINNEAPOLIS

What began as a one-night church service and free meal at a warehouse in North Minneapolis has turned into worship and prayer every weekend. Our services are designed to reach anyone and everyone!

We are happy to bless increasing numbers in our community with free groceries, a hot meal, and worship and teaching each week. Although we do not have a parking lot, there is plenty of street parking in the residential neighborhood surrounding the church.  
We offer a great gospel-focused kid’s church during every service, modern worship music, and grace-based Bible teaching. 
Come as you are! We are a casual place to explore God at your own pace.

Service Times:
Sunday @ 10:30am

*Service time will change to 10am beginning September 8

Oct 18-20 – Fall Student Retreat at Pine Lake Camps in Eldora, IA (Grades 9-12)

Pine Lake Camps' Fall Student Retreat is like if summer camp was a little bit cooler (temperature-wise), a little bit more laid back (schedule-wise), and equally as fun and impactful! Senior High students, come take a mid-semester break at PLC! You're in for a weekend of AWESOME food, powerful worship & teaching, exciting games, events & activities, and lots of chill-time to just hang out by the campfire with your besties. You might even see some of your favorite counselors from past summers! (All students will be under the supervision & leadership of cabin counselors, just like summer camp.)

Nov 1-3 – Fall Women’s Retreat at Pine Lake Camps in Eldora, IA

Ladies... This fall, we are choosing not to "fall" for the idea that life must be BIG and LOUD and BUSY and PRODUCTIVE 24 / 7 / 365. When we invite you to our Fall Retreat, we are inviting you to truly... Retreat. To Rest. Breathe. Listen. Receive. Our retreat this year is a little later in the season, just before the holidays hit with their typical excitement and obligations. On November 1-3, 2024, we will open Pine Lake Camps to you and your girlfriends for a reprieve and re-set...and then a graceful returning to your place in this wild, beautiful world God has given us.

Kids Church

Each of our churches are unique, which means that each church offers something a little different for kids during our weekend services. As our churches grow, we develop a church experience especially for them! (Read about Kids Church here.) Our mission at every church is to see your kids cross the line of faith and follow Jesus!

Nursery | For kids ages 6 weeks – 4 years

Our nursery is available for our youngest kiddos to experience the love and security Jesus offers. Drop off your little one in our nursery during church services, where they’ll play, hear a Bible story, and get prayed over by trained, caring volunteers.

Elementary | For school-age kids (K-5th grade)

Our 5-11 year-olds are our most age group that is most receptive to the Good News. We take this opportunity seriously! We have a special focus on tangible aspects of discipleship – helping kids navigate their Bibles, pray in groups, use their gifts to serve others, build friendships, and share their faith – all while teaching the Gospel every week through a Bible-based curriculum. Our elementary kids are together for the majority of their church experience, but may break into grade-based small groups for discussions and activities.

Big Church

Kids of all ages are welcome to worship with their grown-ups in the adult services, if that’s what works best for your family! We provide a kid version of the sermon notes with activities to help little brains stay focused.
If you choose to have your kids join you in “big church”, here are some suggestions of things that help kids stay engaged:
• Have your child bring his/her own Bible, and help look up the Scripture in the sermon
• Encourage them to sing or dance during worship songs
• Coloring items
• Small, non-electronic toys for little ones (cars, puzzles, books)
• The Bible App for Kids and a pair of headphones
• If your child gets wiggly or chatty, you’re welcome to step into the lobby or into the Family Seating room to give him/her a break
