CHANGEFEST 2015
this saturday april 18th!

FREE MUSIC FESTIVAL ROCKS OUT TO PROMOTE POSITIVE SOCIAL CHANGE ChangeFest plugs in with amazing bands, fantastic food and ways to help make the world a better place. ATLANTA, Ga. (March 16, 2015) – We all want to make a difference, but where do we start? ChangeFest, an allday music festival in the heart of Midtown Atlanta, will show you how while rocking out in the process. Open to the public, this free outdoor festival on Saturday, April 18 from 11 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. rocks into spring with an amazing musical line-up. Headliner The Glenn Phillips Band features a special appearance by Cindy Wilson of legendary party group The B-52’s. Robert Schneider of The Apples in Stereo performs a special acoustic set. Atlanta new wave legends The Swimming Pool Q’s take the stage for the occasion. Indie rockers Starboarders round out the day. In between bands, the Beer & Hymns gospel sing-along takes place in the festival’s beer garden. This popular monthly event, now taking place at Smith’s Olde Bar, sets up shop at 

ChangeFest and invites festival goers to raise their glasses and their voices at the same time. Guests fuel up for all of the festivities with a bevy of food options. A food truck caravan keeps bellies full. 

Young ones can burn off the calories in the ChangeFest Kid’s Zone. This includes games, inflatables and a nearby playground for budding rockers. Yet the most important part of the day is learning how to make a difference by visiting booths featuring an array of organizations specializing in positive social change. Groups include Habitat For Humanity, Street Grace, Midtown Assistance Center, Lutheran Community Food Ministry and more. Guests can learn more about these and other organizations, and potentially find a cause that speaks to them.

Who is House of the Rock?

As Christians, who happen to be Lutheran, we believe in a gracious God who loves all of creation. 

We believe that God is more than we can know or imagine - beyond our language - beyond our metaphors.

Still we trust that we will meet this God every day in the ancient story, in the bread and wine, in the sea and sky, and in one another.

God's love for us is unconditional and by God's grace we are saved.  So we get to live our lives in freedom, practicing what it means to be hopeful, practicing what it means to love our neighbor, practicing what it means to live a holy life.

And we believe that God gathers us - as messy as we are - and calls us into community asking us to be the church for the sake of this broken world.  
God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit is our past, our present, and our future.
Our Mission expressed in the Hymn 
 The Church of Christ, In Every Age by Fred Pratt Green

The church of Christ in every age, beset by change but Spirit-led,
must claim and test its heritage and keep on rising from the dead.

Across the world, across the street, the victims of injustice cry
for shelter and for bread to eat, and never live until they die.

Then let the servant church arise, a caring church that longs to be
a partner in Christ's sacrifice, and clothed in Christ's humanity.

For he alone, whose blood was shed, can cure the fever in our blood,
and teach us how to share our bread and feed the starving multitude.

We have no mission but to serve in full obedience to our Lord:
to care for all, without reserve, and spread his liberating word.
