Faith Presbyterian Church on West Friendly Avenue (at King George Road) exemplifies how churches are so much more than a place to go on Sunday. Houses of worship, of all faiths, are places to monitor your health, to enjoy fellowship with your age group, to plan for mission trips, and more! In the above photo, you see the community garden at Faith Presbyterian. They are preparing their plot to grow produce. These communal garden plots teach children the value of sourcing food locally- and how to do it.
Like many churches, Faith Presbyterian shares their sanctuary with another congregation. Every Sunday at 1pm, the El Shaddai Vision Church meets and Pastor Prince Mundane holds services in Swahili and English. Their members are mostly from the local African immigrant community. How wonderful that diverse religious groups can come together. When diverse groups interact with each other in a positive way, there is a greater appreciation of diversity in our community.
One often sees joint use of churches between congregations here.
