About the Provider
We are about two miles east of the center of Indianapolis, on Rural St. just north of Washington St. You can also reach us from Interstate 70 by exiting south at the Rural/Keystone interchange, and driving south about two miles. After exiting I-70, and going about 2 miles south on Rural St., you will come to an east bound (left) one way street (New York St.). There is a Village Pantry on the far lefthand corner of the intersection of New York and Rural. Stay on Rural past New York Street and Englewood is on the left before you reach the next traffic light. There is a large driveway with brick columns on each side, just before you get to our church building. This driveway opens into a parking lot, which will take you to the main entrance of the building.
