What's a Sunday Gathering like?
We meet at an elementary school in University City, Philadelphia. Each Sunday, we hear a message from the Word of God, often with time for discussion. After service, we enjoy lunch and sports together!
Besides our normal Sundays, we also hold baptism Sundays, special talks, evangelism days, Serve Sundays, and Thanksgiving and Easter Sundays with special elements.
"And they devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers."
— Acts 2:42 (ESV)
What are Serve Sundays?
The Christian call to servanthood is to emulate Jesus, whose ministry was to serve the poor, sick, and needy. We strive to be followers of Jesus, and we create monthly opportunities for our members to serve the community. Most recently, we partner with two local rehabilitation centers and elderly homes.
"But not so with you. Rather, let the greatest among you become as the youngest, and the leader as one who serves. For who is the greater, one who reclines at table or one who serves? Is it not the one who reclines at table? But I am among you as the one who serves."
— Luke 22:26-27 (ESV)
What are Grow Groups?
Living out God's Word is an essential part of every Christian's spiritual journey. Grow Groups are small discussion groups where we discuss the Sunday message, share how to apply it to our lives, and spur each other on to take steps throughout the week to grow in servanthood, prayer, and other Biblical themes.
"All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work."
— 2 Timothy 3:16-17 (ESV)
