After the monthly first Sunday Potluck at Englewood, our young families will be meeting at the YMCA for a pool party! Reach out to Carolyn if you have any questions about this event!

Bring your favorite main dish, side dish, or dessert and plan to stay after our weekly worship service for a potluck meal in the Fellowship Hall. This is a great time of friendship, food, and connections!

Once a quarter during our monthly potluck, Pastor Christie invites those that are new to Englewood to bring their lunch into the Fireside room to join her in learning more about our faith community, our programs, and to answer any questions that individuals may have about connecting here.

As part of our Wide Welcome Initiative, we will be showing the documentary film 1946. Below is a description of the film:

“1946: The Mistranslation That Shifted Culture is a feature documentary that follows the story of tireless researchers who trace the origins of the anti-gay movement among Christians to a grave mistranslation of the Bible in 1946.

It chronicles the discovery of never-before-seen archives at Yale University which unveil astonishing new revelations, and casts significant doubt on any biblical basis for LGBTQIA+ prejudice. Featuring commentary from prominent scholars as well as opposing pastors, including the personal stories of the film’s creators, 1946 is at once challenging, enlightening, and inspiring.”

We invite you to join us for a screening of this film and then a discussion following.
