    If you're a spiritual person who just happens to be fed up with people using the Bible to oppress…read moregay folk, then you might just consider St. John's MCC your saving grace. I know that I do. The Metropolitan Community Churches denomination is known as one that originated for the LGBT community, but being a different-gender-loving (straight) woman who is a steadfast LGBT ally, I feel right at home in this church. There are special things happening at St. Johns -- lives are being transformed here all of the time. There is an 845am service that is more traditional in style, and the 11am service is contemporary worship. Ethnically, St, Johns is a beautiful mix of races and backgrounds. I was raised Roman Catholic, and I have gotten to know and understand more about the backgrounds of my fellow members who come from Baptist, Methodist, Pentecostal, Jehovah Witness, and other religious backgrounds. The sincerity with which the deacons, pastors, and friends at St. Johns pray for and with me/us is something that has completely transformed my outlook on christian spirituality. The place reeks of LOVE, and there is always someone willing to pray with you and guide you in a positive direction. Bible study group on Tuesday is always informational and inspirational. I can't say enough about how great this church is.

    From the owner: Jesus-­centered, friendly, people who didn't grow up in church will understand, great programs for…read morekids, encouraging, small groups, involvement, social justice, queer space

    This park is smaller in comparison to the larger Raleigh parks, however, it is clean and features a…read morebaseball field, indoor, and outdoor basketball courts. The Community Center is very well kept and modern. It also features a Teen Zone for teens 13-17. They have activity rooms, a video game room, gym and indoor basketball court. We attended the Teen Hang Out event Friday night and the staff was excellent. Everyone was very welcoming and engaged very well with the teens. My daughter enjoys basketball so she spent a lot of time in the gym doing a small tournament and in the video game room. I appreciate how Raleigh Parks Dept invests in their parks and rec centers. I just wish they had Teen Zones in NorthWest Raleigh. We have to drive 25 minutes in traffic to visit teen zones like Saint Monica, Green Road and Tarboro. It would be fair if Brier Creek or Millbrook had a Teen Zone. Teenagers need a safe space where they can gather and feel supported and appreciated.

    I stopped in to check out this park today and found that the bigger ball field was being used for…read moresome sort of semi-pro game. Both teams had uniforms, there were a lot of fans, some folks had cookout stuff and folding chairs. It looked quite exciting! Other than that ball game going on, the park has a large picnic shelter located next to the volleyball and tennis courts. There is a concrete-surface basketball court, four lighted tennis courts and two lighted sand volleyball courts. There are two baseball fields (the larger one is 350 feet to the fence!) and a woodchip-surface playground for ages 5 to 12. I would guess that normally there is enough parking here, but with the event going on, just about every space was filled and so were some "creative" spaces. [Review 11655 overall, 1437 of 2019.]
