Facility Usage Form

Parkway United Church of Christ makes certain of its church spaces available for rental to the community, subject to the needs, policies, and values of the church. All renters are expected to respect the church and take no actions inconsistent with the church’s religious mission. This Rental Agreement sets forth the customary terms and conditions of church rentals, but no agreement can anticipate all situations, and the church reserves full rights and discretion with respect to all rentals and all uses of its space.
