5 /5 Jen E: Lafayette Avenue Presbyterian Church is right in the heart of the Elmwood Village. The church has participants from the city as well as the surrounding suburban community. The church seeks to serve the community at large, hosting community events for the holidays and a blessings box at the front entrance of the Lafayette Avenue side of the building. This box is available for anyone in need of staples and is supplied by the community. The Church offers online service on Facebook at 10am and when safe, in person service as well, also at 10:00 a.m. Check them out on Facebook and other social media platforms, as well as online at ElmwoodJesus.org.
My husband and I were searching for a church community and found this over a decade ago when they hosted Ralph Nader and also used to have a food kitchen for the community. We appreciate the churchs focus on living out Christs mission.
The church went through a large building project; they are still an active church and also have apartments available. This project was an effort to maintain the church and strive as a community of believers. This is a loving community of folks of all types who respect each others differences. People are very friendly and nice here. Hope to see you there someday!
