NOTES:

-The church is the Columbia Heights neighborhood of Washington, DC.  There should be street parking surrounding the church or a few blocks away.  The church is about a 7 minute walk from the Columbia Heights metro station (Green and Yellow lines), and very close to the S2, S4, 54, and 52 bus lines.

-The celebration is held at Jim Gilmore's house, which is walking distance from the church. We will provide hotdogs, hamburgers, veggie burgers, and a few beverages.  If you would like to volunteer to bring a side, please let me know, but no pressure!

-Please feel free to bring any alcoholic or nonalcoholic refreshments you would like to have.  There is a store located on the corner of Park Rd NW and 13th St NW, as well as a Giant Supermarket between the church and Jim's house.

-Bring friends!  

-The celebration is intended to be welcoming for my secular friends as well.  Even if you're not comfortable with religion and don't wish to attend the service, please join in a celebration of friendship, community, and lovely (hopefully) Spring days!  

-Please feel free to choose to come to the service, the celebration, or both.  All are welcome, regardless of religious belief.  Please RSVP either in a comment or an email to me at ericalindseyw@gmail.com, preferably by May 17.  Bring friends!
