Formation

Faith is a journey, and we grow by learning, questioning, and discovering together. Through worship, study, and reflection, we deepen our understanding of God’s love and our place in the world. Formation is about more than gaining knowledge – it’s about shaping our hearts, stretching our spirits, and becoming people who live with greater compassion, wisdom, and courage. We believe that growth happens best in conversation, where questions are welcome, doubts are honored, and new insights emerge.

From small groups and Sunday gatherings to spiritual practices and thoughtful discussions, we offer many ways to engage with scripture, theology, and faith traditions. Whether you are exploring Christianity for the first time or have been on this path for years, there is always more to discover. Together, we seek to form lives that reflect grace, humility, and a love that reaches beyond ourselves.
