What to expect

This is church like you’ve never seen it before.

No frills. No ceremony. No rituals. No symbolism. It is simply a time for the people of God to come together with Jesus in the midst. We talk. We sing. We pray. We eat a meal together. We take the holy communion together and study the Bible. We share what God is doing in their lives. We intercede for people and for all kinds of needs all over the world. We minister one to another through the gifts God has given each one. We love one another and seek to encourage and build each other up in their faith.

Since we don’t have “pastors”, we trust the Holy Spirit to use every believer to teach and encourage the group. In our gatherings, everyone is expected to participate and be looking for ways to use the gifts the Holy Spirit provides (see 1 Corinthians 14:26 NASB).

We will follow the Holy Spirit’s leading to worship, study scripture and pray together. Also, just like traditional family gatherings, we usually share a meal. Eating together facilitates an environment where people have genuine open conversations with each other and promotes mutual accountability among the members
