SUMMARY:Spiritual Recovery Community
DESCRIPTION:Spiritual Recovery Community: Finding Healing After Church Hurt\nHave you walked away from a faith community or wrestled with the pain of high-control or fear-based religion? You are not alone—and your story matters. Many people carry wounds from spiritual environments that were meant to offer hope but instead left scars of judgment\, fear\, or exclusion. This event is designed with you in mind: a safe\, welcoming space to explore healthier ways of engaging with faith. \nOur time together will focus on topics specific to church-hurt\, spiritual trauma\, and the challenges of deconstructing harmful religious experiences. You’ll have the opportunity to share your frustrations\, ask questions\, and connect with others who understand what you’ve been through. Whether you’re still processing\, searching for new meaning\, or simply longing to be heard\, this is a place where your journey is honored without pressure or judgment. \nWe’ll strive for balance: combining thoughtful\, intellectual conversation about faith and spirituality with opportunities for personal and communal healing. This isn’t about quick fixes or forcing belief—it’s about holding space for honesty\, curiosity\, and growth. Together\, we’ll create a community where listening\, respect\, and compassion guide our conversations. \nIf you’ve ever felt silenced\, dismissed\, or misunderstood in your faith journey\, this gathering offers a chance to breathe\, reflect\, and rediscover hope in a healthier\, more life-giving form of spirituality. \nCome as you are. Bring your questions\, your doubts\, and your story.\n \nYou don’t have to navigate this alone—join us and find support among people who get it. \n\nWhen: 2nd & 4th Wednesdays\, September – June\nTime: 6:00 – 7:15 p.m.\nNot Meeting: November 26\, 2025 & December 24\, 2025\n\nRegister Now >

We’ll be hosting a Serve Spotlight just outside the Sanctuary after the 9am and 11am services. Join this focused and meaningful opportunity to connect with ministries that need your gifts and talents. \nYou’ll find three ministry tables\, each representing a unique way to make a difference in our church and community. Whether you have a heart for hospitality\, a talent for organizing\, or simply want to meet people and see where you might get involved\, this is your chance to explore where God may be calling you. \nServing isn’t just about filling a need—it’s about discovering joy. As our sermon that morning will remind us\, serving is one of the most powerful ways we can live out our faith\, grow in community\, and share God’s love in tangible ways. Even small acts of service can have a big impact\, both for those we serve and for our own spiritual growth. \nHere’s how you can participate: \n\nStop by the tables after worship on August 24.\nChat with ministry leaders and volunteers.\nAsk questions\, gather information\, and see where your skills might fit.\nTake the first step toward a joyful serving experience.\n\nIt’s a casual\, no-pressure environment—just a chance to explore\, be inspired\, and see how you might plug in. \nMark your calendar now! Don’t miss this simple but powerful opportunity to find your place in serving joyfully. \nEvent Details:\nDate: Sunday\, August 24\nTime: 10am & 12pm\nLocation: Outside the Sanctuary
