The Anchor Gaslamp was a Christian community in downtown San Diego, California.[1] It is missional in intent and incarnational in practice. Since the first gathering on Easter Sunday in 2008 the group has attracted a diverse congregation. They have since moved to East Village and changed their name to New City Church [1]
Gatherings
Anchor Gaslamp met on the first three Sundays of the month in the heart of downtown San Diego's
The Keating Hotel located on the corner of 5th & F St.).[1] On the other Sundays, the Community joined for Anchor in Action which are mission-driven events all over the city, with the sole purpose of "not just going to church, but being the church." These Sundays ranged in activities from homeless barbecues to delivering truckloads of donated goods to orphanages and women's recovery homes in Baja California
.
The larger community was made up of other smaller communities that met throughout the week. All other meetings, services, or mission-events were derived out of these communities, which met in various locations throughout the city.
