STUDIES & GATHERINGS
Growing in faith is a journey that lasts a lifetime.
UnSCRIPTed
Led by the Spirit • Grounded in the Word • Connected in Community
Looking for a space to connect, reflect, and simply be yourself?
UnSCRIPTed is a relaxed gathering focused on real conversation about life, relationships, faith, and the experiences that shape us. It's a place where people can share honestly, listen deeply, and build meaningful connections in a safe, supportive, and judgment-free environment.
We're intentionally setting church business aside to make room for what matters most: community, encouragement, and authentic relationships.
Each gathering begins with a short inspirational reading. It might come from Scripture, a devotional, a book such as Belonging by Melanie Dobson, or another meaningful source chosen by the facilitator for that day. From there, the conversation is guided by the people in the room and wherever the Spirit leads.
Bring a favorite Scripture, song, quote, story, or simply come as you are. Whether you're feeling inspired, searching for encouragement, or just looking for connection, there's a place for you here.
Everyone is welcome, including friends from the community and church. Even our pastor is invited to leave the work behind and simply enjoy the fellowship.
Gatherings will be announced here, by Messages, and on Facebook and Instagram. Some may be planned ahead, while others may happen more spontaneously when people feel the need for connection and support.
