One Community, Two Ways:
We are a sometimes spontaneous, occasionally mobile, often adventurous, Chicago church whose schedule can change from time to time. The best way to stay in the loop is to sign up for our weekly email.
All Together Church
In-person & Online
Our affectionate tweak of an old-time Sunday service where we gather as a whole community. You'll hear some music (everything from folk hymns, gospel, soul, covers of our favorite band, check out our spotify playlist) and thoughtful words about what all this spiritual stuff might mean. There’ll be a nice mix of prayer and communion as well.
First and Third Sundays of Each Month

Welcome Tables
Welcome Tables are church in its most basic form: community, conversation, prayer, and sacred space over a meal. Since the very beginnings of Root + Branch, Welcome Tables — or dinner church as it's often called— have been a way for this community to share life together.
This season of Welcome Tables will have a twist, as all groups will be centered around the sacraments of food, storytelling, and bearing witness. Each participant will be invited to share a chapter from their spiritual autobiography (a fancy way of saying we’ll share meaningful stories from our lives) and engage in listening practices that emphasize curiosity and attention.
Sign-ups are currently closed, but if you're still interested, please drop your email in this form and we can let you know if space opens up in one of the groups! You can also share your email if you'd like to stay informed for when our next Welcome Tables season will start.
