the Q Café

It’s been a little less than 4 months since we re-opened Q Café after a month long renovation and re-vision. The turnaround is slow going but it’s also exciting to see it becoming what we hope it will be. Q Café is the church’s attempt to be a great neighborhood presence throughout the week. It’s vision is simple:

To that end, would you partner with us in the following ways to help build Q Café’s presence?

1. ENJOY Q Café. We’re open Monday-Friday and stay open till 9pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays for your enjoyment.
2. MUSIC. A wonderful OPEN MIC takes place on Tuesday nights for anyone that’s looking for a place to sing, perform, and slam. We also have weekly LIVE MUSIC shows on Friday nights.
3. SPREAD THE WORD. Please forward Q Cafe’s website to your friends, neighbors, and colleagues. If appropriate, please print out this FLIER and help promote the Q Café.
