The Church of St. Paul and St. Andrew United Methodist (SPSA) on Manhattan's
Upper West Side is so much more than a place for Sunday morning worshipping. It is a vital part of the fabric of New York City. This 19th century brick and terra cotta church houses a progressive Methodist congregation; its sanctuary is used by the neighboring B'nai Jeshurun congregation on Saturday mornings to accommodate their growing numbers; Rivers of Living Water, an African American LGBT congregation worships there on Sunday afternoons; the West Side Campaign Against Hunger, an innovative, and NYC's largest food pantry is housed in the cellar; a women's shelter, run in conjunction with B'nai Jeshurun, provides a meal and a bed for homeless women; and a tutoring program for K-12 children meets weekly, are just some of the many community activities housed in this beautiful, very old building.

Ongoing maintenance as well as much needed repair of the church, especially its roof proves to be a daunting undertaking. SPSA's congregation is donating and raising funds to help deflect the overwhelming costs incurred by the above. Many if the repairs can no longer wait or be satisfied with a band-aid any longer. The goal of this delightful evening of
music is to raise funds from the many congregations who use the space as well as
the community at large.
