pub church
A pub church is a Christian Church which meets in a public house or similar establishment. Their purpose is to exist as an authentic Christian community, but in a way which is both provocative and accessible to un-churched people. Thornton recognises that the closure of public houses has diminished community space, and this is an attempt to restore this community asset.
As Archbishop Rowan Williams has commented:
This can take a number of forms. Sometimes an old public house is purchased, and used as a church building,〔 retaining the welcome and feel of a pub. Others rent a room in an existing pub,〔 and church happens with the context of the functioning public house.
==Examples==
In the UK examples can be found in Nottingham - ''Eagle's Nest Church,''〔http://eaglesnestchurch.co.uk/Pub.aspx Eagles Nest Church Nottingham〕 (Brighton ), London - ''Church on the Corner'',〔http://www.churchonthecorner.org.uk London〕 and (Christ Church Balham ), and (Cardiff ). Currently, a community of believers in Fishers, Indiana are meeting at The Pub at Pinheads under the ministry name of "(Leavener );" also a group called "Connect Rome" meet at a local bar named McCrobie's in Rome, Georgia.〔http://connectrome.com Connect Rome〕
