Nickelsville moving Friday

posted by Cydney Gillis on Wednesday, February 3 at 12:36pm

From our friends living in the tent city named in honor of Seattle’s last mayor:

After a great 90-day stay at New Hope Missionary Baptist Church, Nickelsville moves again. This will be our 11th move in 17 months. This time, we’ve been invited to stay at Greater Mt. Baker Baptist Church, led by Pastor Kenneth Ransfer. Join us Friday as we move-out from the old site and set-up community spaces with our new temporary host. We will be at both locations throughout the day. 

In the meantime, we are waiting for Mayor Michael McGinn to respond to our request for a meeting. As always, we are grateful for the support we’ve received from the people of Seattle, its churches, and other organizations as we seek our goal:  a permanent site that can hold up to 1,000 people.  Together we can find a solution. 

New Hope Missionary Baptist Church is located at 124 21st Ave. Greater Mt. Baker Baptist Church is at 2425 S. Jackson St. (east of the Red Apple grocery at Jackson and 23rd).
