Friday Fellowship

An emphasis of our church culture is to know and love each other individually and collectively. To help facilitate this, we strongly encourage regular times of togetherness outside of the church services. As we do not regularly populate our evenings and weekends with church organized youth programs, our entire church body is more freed to pursue deeper relationships with the church as a whole. We sometimes organize whole-church fellowships, but most often encourage the families of the church to create their own smaller gatherings of fellowship within the church body…rotating through the membership and including everyone (even non-member attendees when and where possible). Some light checks and guidance might be put in place to help us be sure that we are getting to better know everyone within the church family…that is, all ages getting to know everyone. Times and places will certainly vary to accommodate this ideal, but as a general point of focus, we try to encourage availability and willingness to gather on Friday evenings, if possible. At the very least, it’s a starting point with which to have the conversation.
