We are a church of painters, doodlers, musicians, homebrewers, filmmakers, actors, directors, sculptors, photographers, crafters, sewers, gardeners, poets, baristas, dancers, opera singers, cyclists, walkers, runners, fair traders, chefs, bakers, composers, writers, questioners, seekers and dreamers, not to mention our day jobs. The Berry Church building houses not only the Berry faith community, but we also partner with African Community United Methodist Church—a “Home Away From Home” for Ghana and Nigeria immigrants, and we are home for the Lincoln Square Arts Center and Theatre, as well as twelve-step groups, the Northside Green Party, a dedicated 5-nights-a-week ping pong club, La Leche League Parenting Group, and Hull House Lincoln Square Daycare, Headstart, and After School Programs.
