Where We Meet

Contrary to popular opinion, the church is not a building - it is the
people of God whether they are gathered together for worship or are
dispersed for service in the community. But we do have a meeting place
where we gather regularly to meet God and one another . . . and to welcome
guests such as yourself! Come join us soon!
Directions: We
are located at 1604 Hammond Avenue, one block north of East Ridgeway on
the south side of Waterloo. (See city-wide map.)
If you are traveling to the church building from out-of-town, see the
