Foundationally, we would first invite each other to pursue the life of worship that goes beyond any one gathering as shown in Romans 12:1-2 knowing that the most impactful way to experience AND express both the love and mission of Jesus is through smaller transformational communities and relationships.

With that being said, our House Churches do gather together regularly to worship and fellowship in homes throughout our community. Our pursuit is to embody the characteristics spoken in Acts 2:42 where we see a commitment to the Word of God, prayer, deep relationships, and the gratefulness of communion. When we are togehter, we pursue to be personal over programmed,  participatory over passive, and in relationships instead of sitting in rows.

As we gather, you will see that we value our fellowship with God and one another through His Word, that we love lifting up praises to God, that we value each other and strive to take responsibility of each other's spiritual well-being, and that we consider it a gift of grace to be called together. Each house church gathering will look different because it is the unique gifting of those in that house church coming together that will shape how they pursue and live out those opportunities.
