In December of 2021 many of you committed to being a part of a two-year journey called OPEN. Together, we’ve been praying and dreaming about new ways of introducing people to Jesus, and as you just heard, what we’ve been imagining together is becoming real!
The Gathering has always been a church that is creative, flexible, and open to the new things that God is doing, and what’s happening here is really exciting. New generations of people are growing in their faith, and it’s because you have been OPEN to giving generously. Thank you for giving to The Gathering - you’re helping to make these kinds of stories possible!
If you are new to The Gathering or you’ve just begun to take part in the Gathering, you can be a part of OPEN, too. Visit Gatheringnow.org/open for more information.

Open: Week 4 Thanks for joining us for worship! OPEN Commitment form: http://gatheringnow.ccbchurch.com/goto/forms/425/responses/new Connect, Give, Serve, Worship: http://linktr.ee/gatheringnow There are moments in our lives when we will face a choice – will we continue doing what we’ve always done or will we take a step toward a new future? This is one of those moments. Will you be open to what lies ahead? To be OPEN is at the heart of who we are called to be. It takes a willingness to listen, to be disrupted and to make space for new things. Before we can grow, we must be OPEN. Join us on a journey to find the key that will OPEN new doors in a future that is full of possibility and hope. Doors that lead to a vision that will have great impact on the lives of people for generations to come. Most of all, be open to where God might be calling you to go in your faith. All that is required of you is a willingness to be OPEN. Are you ready?
