Urban Village Church

I am off to Urban Village church this morning. This community is a United Methodist church plant here in Chicago that launched about 5 years ago and now worships in four locations. It is interesting that it is hard to find on their website that they are denominationally related to the UMC. They do declare in a small section of their beliefs page that they are affiliated with the UMC. For me it might indicate that denominationalism is not as important within today's religious world. This is a congregation that has no building, but rents space in all of their locations: South Loop, Wicker Park, Andersonville, and Hyde Park. Urban Village is an intentional church plant, with the Northern Illinois Conference contributing financially to its start up. If you want to check out their web site it is located at: www.urbanvillagechurch.org
