About this church
Independence, Missouri has two meetinghouses of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in this directory, and the one at 700 W Lexington Ave sits just a fifth of a mile from the other — among the closest pairings in this batch. The building offers a wheelchair-accessible entrance, parking lot, restroom, and seating for visitors.
Because the two meetinghouses sit so close together, congregations here are almost certainly organized by ward boundary rather than distance. Each still follows the familiar format: an hour of sacrament meeting, then an hour of classes for different ages, with children attending Primary. There's no cost to attend and no collection plate. With two buildings so near each other, confirming the right one and its time through the Church's meetinghouse locator at churchofjesuschrist.org or the phone number listed here is worth the extra step.
