Come To Church In A Bar & Bring Your Dog
AUSTIN (AP) ―
A nondenominational church is conducting Sunday services in a bar and allowing dogs to attend with their owners.
The City Community Church meets Sunday mornings at La Zona Rosa, a music venue and bar, the Austin American-Statesman reported.
Church members say meeting in a bar and allowing dogs are ways to serve the community and make people feel comfortable.
Organizers say it takes an hour and a half to make the switch from bar to church by cleaning up beer bottles and installing baby gates.
Scott Harmon says when services are over "it's back to a bar."
Rev. Matthias Haeusel says most dogs are well-behaved, although things got awkward when a German shepherd recently tried to eat one of the smaller dogs.
