church and a coffee shop?
In 2008 the vision of "church in a coffee shop" was birthed by a group of people who had seen the need to meet the community not only with the Gospel message of Jesus, but with a safe place, centrally located, where community could happen. In 2009 the Common Place Church was born and Avenue 209 Coffee House along with it, owned by the church and being a part of its mission.
The Common Place Church, although new in some ways, has a very rich history and connection with this community. The Lock Haven Alliance church has existed in this community for over 80 years, and The Common Place Church is a continuation of this rich heritage.
We belong to a large family of churches called The Christian and Missionary Alliance (C&MA) and help support the worldwide work of missions. Our own church was born out of the generosity of this denomination and we support church planting across Eastern PA.
