In the heart of Piedmont, California

Our address is: 400 Highland Avenue, Piedmont, CA 94611.

Parking

There are no reserved street spaces or parking lot spaces for church visitors.  So we encourage you to allow a few extra minutes to find parking.  You can park on the surrounding residential streets or in front of the Community Hall on Highland Avenue. Also note the main entrance is located under the archway on Mountain Ave. near the corner of Highland Way, diagonally across from Piedmont Park.

Handicapped Accessibility

The main Courtyard entrance to the Sanctuary has a wheelchair ramp.  For those needing assistance in walking, handicapped parking is available in the Staff Parking Lot.  To reach this entrance (from the light at Oakland Ave.), turn right onto Highland Ave., then take an immediate left onto Craig Ave. After one half block turn right down the unmarked driveway.   You can then reach the front entrance by following the sidewalk straight ahead to the breezeway on your left which leads to the Courtyard. There is also a side entrance to the Sanctuary, which is accessible down the path that turns sharply to the left and then to the right past the doorkeeper’s cottage. Those who have trouble walking can also be dropped off and picked up at the bottom of the driveway of the Staff Parking Lot. In addition, there is one handicapped parking space on Highland Avenue at the end of the sidewalk near the church signboard (across the street from the Citibank & Mulberry’s Market).
