Middleburg Heights is doing a Concert in the Park this Saturday, May 30 from 6:00–8:30pm, and we love stuff like this. We’re big on building real community, which means showing up for our city and the people in it. If you’re going, feel free to park right at Common Ground and walk over to the concert. Click the link for all the details, and if you see other Common Ground folks there, say hey.

Cleveland weather is unpredictable enough. Your Sunday shouldn't be.

We all know the Northeast Ohio rule: walk into church at 10:30 AM dressed for summer, and walk out at 11:30 AM needing a winter beanie. Lake-effect weather is a wild ride.

Dealing with Cleveland's wardrobe math is stressful enough. The last thing you need on a Sunday morning is pressure over a church dress code.

At Common Ground our policy is simple: Come as you are. Jeans and a flannel? Perfect. Shorts and a tee? Awesome. A winter coat over shorts because of a sudden 40-degree temperature drop? We get it.

We care that you’re here, not what you’re wearing. No pretenses, no judgment. Grab your coffee, face the weather forecast, and join us this Sunday at 10:30 AM!

Last Saturday’s Common Ground Serve Day was the real deal. A number of hardworking volunteers showed up ready to work and knocked out spring cleanup, pulling weeds, laying mulch, planting grass, tearing out old shrubs, and a whole lot more. People brought tractors, carts, and every tool imaginable, and it made a huge difference in keeping Common Ground looking sharp.

There were plenty of laughs along the way, plus the essentials: coffee, donuts, and we wrapped it up with grilled hot dogs. Big thanks to everyone who came out and pitched in. You made it a great day. Welcome to Different.

Last year was a blast. We expect the same this year!

Ok Common Grounders, this Saturday is our Outdoor Serve Day!

Even if you didn’t sign up, you can still show up Saturday morning at 9am and jump in. We’ll be weeding, laying mulch, doing some spring cleanup, and helping make Common Ground look great.

Many hands make light work, and last year was a lot of fun. Some of us even made new friends while pulling weeds, which feels like a small miracle.

Coffee, donuts, hot dogs, teamwork, and a little dirt under your fingernails. Come join us!
