[Relatively] new church in Westport doing awesome things.

My wife and I recently started going to a church called Redeemer Fellowship in Westport at 3921 Baltimore. The building used to belong to First Calvary Baptist Church, but that congregation donated the building and all contents to the new Redeemer Fellowship congregation. Redeemer began in June of 2008 and has already grown to about 600 or so attendees weekly.
The reason I'm writing this here is because this church has a huge passion for the urban core. One of the central messages is encouraging members to live in the city center and contribute to their communities. As an example, many members volunteer often at Westport High School and even do things like go to WHS football games to support the team/community.
I've grown up in the church and it's unlike any congregation I've been a part of. I would encourage anyone who has been looking for a fresh dose of the gospel to try out Redeemer Fellowship.
