About Us
The Landing Place is a community of friends and neighbors that "do life" together. The central theme of this life is a shared passion for following Jesus. We often gather in each others homes to share meals, have conversations, read Scriptures, tell stories, study the teachings of Jesus, sing songs, pray prayers, recite poetry, and practice liturgies.
Sometimes a few of us will meet in a coffee house or pub for spiritual and/or philosophical discussion, or to talk about a book we’ve currently read and found meaningful.
We also like to throw worship parties in our art studio. Our parties usually involve some or all of the following: candles, loud music, incense, quiet music, visual art, food, sitting, standing, meditation, dialogue, monologue, songs, and ancient prayers.
There are certain things we value that shape who we are as a church. They are:
Following Jesus (because we consider him to be not only the finest teacher that ever lived, but also the Messiah.)
Being Creative (because we are made in the image of the Creator, and seek to make Him known through our creations.)
Sharing Life (because life is best experienced together in community.)
Making Peace (because Jesus asked us to not only love our friends, but also our enemies.)
Loving Our Neighbors (because being a good neighbor is one of the most valuable things you can do.)
The Story (because to value the lives of those who have gone before us is to make our own stories richer.)
Living Missionaly (because living as a "sent" people allows people to see Jesus, and experience him for themselves.)
We are artists, students, thinkers, parents, mystics; but more than anything we’re just people on a journey. We always enjoy meeting new friends who are also on the journey. Hopefully we can meet soon over a cup of coffee and a story.
