The Divine Worship Locator

Type a city and see what houses of worship are near you — in whatever tradition you keep. Parishes, AME congregations, mosques, synagogues, temples, meeting houses. No ratings, no reviews, no editorializing. Just: who’s around here.

Where this came from. During the Memphis Triple Disaster, Reverend Patricia Hayes-Williams of the AME Church Network ran the disaster-response kitchens that fed survivors all over the city — working shoulder to shoulder with the Islamic Relief, Church of Christ, Baptist, and Jewish Family Services lines in the interfaith distribution. Her churches had served mixed neighborhoods for a hundred years. “We don’t turn people away because they’re not AME. Why would we start now?” Afterward, when the disaster scattered fifty-two thousand people to new cities, she kept hearing the same worry — “I don’t even know where my church is anymore.” So she built this: a fast, non-denominational way to take a scope of the worship near a new home, in any faith. It’s the same idea Maxine talks through in the One Chain interview — faith communities are operational infrastructure. It runs in the OPA interfaith building, and it belongs to everyone.
Data pulled live from OpenStreetMap contributors via the Overpass API, grouped by religion and denomination. Coverage is crowdsourced and uneven — always confirm service times directly with the congregation before visiting. No ratings, reviews, or editorializing here, on purpose.
