Beginning in September through November, we will be reading Christianity for the Rest of Us by Diana Butler Bass.

We will meet in-person on the first and third Wednesday evening of each month. An online option will be offered. All meetings will be at GPC from 5:30-7pm.

Gathering around potluck-style finger-foods (aka bring a little something to share!) and the like, our conversation will be open-ended with some open discussion questions. Curious about the book in particular? Want to get out of the house? Interested in being part of this kind of gathering and community? All are welcome to join, whatever your reason!

The reading commitment is 2 chapters before each gathering, except for one gathering where it is 3 chapters.

     - September 3: Chapters 1 & 2

     - September 17: Chapters 3 & 4

     - October 1: Two chapters selected from Ch.5-14

     - October 15: Two chapters selected from Ch.5-14

     - November 5: Chapters 15, 16, & 17

     - November 19: Epilogue & Group Reflections

Wind Down Wednesdays — a casual gathering at a local watering hole specifically at the end of the 9-to-5 shift. Come wind down after work, have a pint around a shared table, perhaps order some Fish and Chips or the Chicken Pot Pie, and gather in good company!

The Moon and Sixpence is a great spot in downtown Hollywood — there is good parking around, they have a spacious outdoor seating area for when the weather is nice, and their aesthetic is described as an “old world feel” (aka no TVs). Bring a friend if you’d like!

Join Pastor Ari for a coffee at a mix of his favorite coffee spots and places he is looking to try! Sometimes we need a reason to step out of our regular rhythm, out of our regular cafes, and into a new connection or conversation. Consider this your open invitation to stop on by, chat, read, you name it!

On the first Saturday of every other month, our entire church community gathers at our traditional breakfast spot, Elmer’s.

This is a time for families, friends of folks connected to the church, people interested in getting to know the people in our community to hang out on a Saturday — All Church means ALL Church. Consider yourself, your neighbor, and your auntie invited to join us for breakfast!

Join us and all of the neighborhoods beasts, creatures, and animals for an open-to-all Blessing of the Animals! This is a gathering centered on the joys and blessings that our animals are to us, including space to celebrate and bless our animals too. From dogs to cats, turtles to bearded dragons, feathered or amphibious, all of the animals and their owners are invited.

On the first Sunday of each month, the community of Grant Park Church engages in a regular rhythm of taking Communion together.

This offer and invitation to join at the table, to take the bread and to take the cup is open to all. If you desire to participate, you are absolutely welcome to participate.

Alongside our siblings in faith from Rose City Park Presbyterian Church and Saint Michael & All Angels Episcopal Church, we spend an hour on the first Sunday of each month offering an hour of Christian protest —

Our faith asks that we love God and love our neighbor. In times when cruelty and concern for profit eclipses love for our neighbors, particularly our neighbors that are marginalized, oppressed, and most at risk for being tangibly and societally forgotten, what are we to do?

We as Christians and siblings in faith are choosing to stand up and speak up. Whether it is for our LGBTQ+ siblings, our neighbors that are immigrants, migrants, refugees, and asylum seekers, produce workers and farmers, or people of other faiths, we gather with our signs of love and support at the corner of 44th & Sandy Blvd each month.

All are welcome to join in this protest of love.

Grant Park Church meets for a monthly Board meeting on the second Wednesday of each month. These meetings are held online via Zoom and are open to congregants, community members, and friends of the church.

Please email for Pastor Ari for the link to join via Zoom.
