Watch Parties are one way we’re encouraging you to start gathering to worship as the church.
The church isn’t a place, it’s a people on mission together. Gathering together is something that we were made to do. A watch party is you gathering a few other people in your home to fellowship, worship, study God’s word, and do church together. Right now, we want you to be praying about putting a watch party together. When you are ready, you can visit our webpage for some ideas on how you can get one going. Be thinking now of who you can invite. Maybe someone from your Bible Study, another family in our church, a neighbor, or a coworker. Whoever you invite, watch parties are as simple as sitting down with your people, watching our live stream, and joining us in worship.
This is an opportunity to be together with other people. To worship. To take communion. To gather. It doesn’t have to be complicated.
