It produces amazing pizzas and rustic bread, but it is more than that. This oven is a unique place in our community where we all can slow down, create, strengthen relationships, and build connections. The bread oven was built by Hamline Church members, thanks to a generous grant from White Bear Lake United Methodist Church. The oven is a place for the whole community to gather around baking bread, pizzas, cinnamon rolls&#8211;and anything else you can imagine.<\/p>\n<p>For a long time, there was just one oven for an entire village.\u00a0 It was inefficient for every person to have their own oven, and so the community shared a large oven in the center of town. In the process of baking, people would meet friends, discuss politics, share stories, and gossip. In addition to producing good food, the community ovens produced good neighbors. That old idea is now here in the Hamline-Midway neighborhood in Saint Paul. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-741-0-0-1\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor\" data-index=\"1\" ><div class=\"panel-widget-style panel-widget-style-for-741-0-0-1\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h3><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">How can I get involved with the bread oven team?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Please contact the church office at <a href=\"mailto:humc@hamlinechurch.org\">humc@hamlinechurch.org<\/a> to be added to the bread oven email list.
