St. Elizabeth is the space that Vineyard Central owns in Norwood. She was built in 1903 by the Roman Catholic church, and in 1995 was sold to Vineyard Central.

In this space, we've held weddings and funerals, concerts and parties, housed neighbors in need and given away thousands of bags of groceries ... all of these gatherings being various types of worship. We find the building to be a place of joy and comfort, and a place of peace and prayer.

We've been doing what we can to keep her a safe and beautiful place, but she's old and needs a lot of work to keep her going. If you'd like to make a donation to the fund that cares for her, you can do so in three ways:

  • Write a check to Vineyard Central (with a notation of Save Elizabeth in the memo) and mail it to: Save Elizabeth, c/o Vineyard Central, 1757 Mills Ave., Norwood, OH  45212. This is a tax deductible contribution.
  • In 2003 a benefit concert was held to raise funds to care for this beloved friend. Go to Save Elizabeth CD where you can purchase and download songs or the entire CD from the concert. Local artists that performed include Karin Bergquist, Ma Crow, Katie Lauer, Kim Taylor, Ashley Peacock, Maurice Mattei, and many more.  All proceeds go to the Save Elizabeth Building Fund.
  • Buy a T-Shirt. Check out this page for photos and more information.
The Building Team
A team has formed whose focus is to restore St. Elizabeth. This team has been working together on fund raising, writing grants, and developing / working with projects that will physically restore and improve the building. They recently held a prayer vigil in the building that was beautifully done. If you'd like to join their efforts, contact Eric or visit the St. Elizabeth Blog.
