some final words of advice this could be fueled either by gas electricity or by wood. one of the latest bunn coffee makers features a stainless steel carafe that can brew 10 cups of coffee in less than 10 minutes.

Um, yeah, I read the article. “Jesus Christ Is Lord” = not “Pro-Jewish”, whatever the f- that means.

It is super-depressing to walk by the empty storefront now, just some extra-crazy loud dude camped out in the doorway yelling gibberish at the passersby. I miss the electric Menorahs and the neon signage.

I don’t really think that the church was looking for hip, young congregation, but rather a place to practice their religion while those twenty-somethings and gentrifiers go to ritual to get clover coffee.

I was told the entire congregation was lifted up in the rapture and are now singing praises to the Lord at El Toro Taqueria.

Look at all the commenters who didn’t read the article! Weak, dudes.

You can’t dim florescent lights. If you put them on a dimmer circuit they either won’t turn on or they flicker like crazy.

they are not pro-jewish- in fact it is an anti-semitic church that believes that the jews are not the true chosen people, but rather impostors who are children of the devil.

Yea… not so much with the Jewish. They were a Jews for Jesus church. As far as I’m concerned, that “for jesus” part pretty much knocks them out of the Jewish catagory. the Jews for Jesus often like to present themselves as a solution for interfaith couples… but I have a hard time undertstanding how combining two distinct traditions into one is good for the couple, much less thier parents! Religion isn’t like penut butter and chocolate (or pork belly and jicama!) where you smash them together, and it’s better for it.

A few years ago, at a street festival, my student grpahics designer roommate and I were handed flyers from them. They were hand drawn and photocopied onto pastel paper. I pointed out I was offended as a Jew. He pointed out he was offended as a designer.

Yeah I’ll miss this place. It added a lot of life to that part of the street — they were so loud!

Pro-Jewish? Mmmm… I’d bet more like pro-Jehovah’s Witness. They seem to also love the star of David.
Too bad they moved, it was always fun to walk by and catch a snippet of their singing and other storefront church type antics.
