		<description>Church Name - Substance Church
Website - http://www.substancechurch.com/
City and State - Minneapolis/St. Paul, MN
Denomination and/or Know Affiliations - Non-Denominational; part of ARC (Association of Related Churches)
Style - Contemporary, relevant
Any Additional Comments

My husband and I have been attending for a few months now following our move from Riverview.  We enjoy the relevant preaching/teaching and the focus/emphasis on community.  The church emphasizes the fact that &quot;church doesn&#039;t start until the service is over&quot;, and truly takes strides to get people connected with a life group.  

The church is about 5 years old and meets at three different locations within the Twin Cities.  It&#039;s a young and fast-growing church with a diversity of Christians in age and spiritual age.  The spirit of God is certainly moving here --  If you&#039;re in the the Twin Cities, check out Substance!</description>

		<description>Church name: DC Metro Church
Location: Alexandria, VA (about 5 minutes outside of DC)
Denomination: Non-Denomination
Style: Contemporary

Website: http://dcmetrochurch.com/

This church is only 3 years old (very young) and has an amazing sense of community, ambitious staff, family oriented, relaxed environment, and loves to teach about Jesus! It is part of ARC (Association of Related Churches) which you can find more information about on their website. The church started out in a movie theatre and just recently purchased an old warehouse for their permanent building. After graduating MSU I didn&#039;t think I would find much that compaired to Riv- but DCMetro is a perfect fit for me! Whether you are just beginning your work with Christ or want to continue growing in your faith, I would strongly recommend checking out DCMetro</description>

		<description>Church name: Cross Point Church
Website: http://www.crosspoint.tv/nashville/index.html
city/State: Nashville, TN
Denomination: Non-denominational
Style: Contemporary! 
I&#039;m pretty sure the senior pastor is Noel&#039;s long lost twin. Sunday worship, and teachings are strikingly similar to Riverview. They too, serve coffee and have multiple opportunities for involvement within the church and community.</description>
