Legend Community Church

A little bit of a long-shot ask for our local friends:

Our church’s commercial freezer died last week. It’s the freezer we use to store food for our monthly Community Dinners and other events where we feed folks in our neighborhood.

We had a repair technician come take a look at it, and when I asked about replacing the compressor, he basically laughed. 😂 Apparently our trusty old Beverage-Air has lived a very, very full life.

So - we’re looking for a replacement commercial freezer.

Before we start shopping the normal routes, I thought I’d put some feelers out into the community. Does anyone have connections with a restaurant, caterer, food-service company, school, church, nonprofit, equipment dealer, etc. that might have a good used commercial freezer they’re looking to sell or donate? Or know someone who might be able to point us in the right direction?

We’re just starting to figure out what replacement is going to cost, so at this point I’m mostly collecting leads and possibilities.

If you know somebody, tag them here or send me a message. And if not, no worries at all - sometimes you just have to ask and see what turns up!

Thanks, friends!

This Monday!

I mean, it’s only been 18 years

One of the surprising discoveries of reading Scripture as a single story is realizing how often people find themselves away from home.

Adam and Eve are driven from Eden. Israel finds itself enslaved in Egypt. Eventually, the people are carried away into Babylon, singing songs of longing beside foreign rivers. And even when they return, many believed they were still waiting for God to bring them fully home.

Exile turns out to be much more than a historical event. It becomes one of the Bible's most powerful images for loss, longing, hope, and what it means to follow God in a world that often feels strange and disorienting.

Join us for the next session of Story, our ongoing, drop-in Bible study exploring the big themes that weave their way through Scripture. No preparation is required, and each session stands on its own.
