We originally met at a Pavillion at Edwin Warner Park. When the cold weather started we moved to a house. We gradually got too big for a house we met in a barn. We now meet at a photography studio in Franklin TN.
Find a seat on bench, chair, or sofa, wherever you feel comfortable. We usually do four things together, sing, hear a message, share communion, and someone leads a prayer. You can just observe or participate as you like. When communion time comes someone will pass the bread and grape juice. Someone will make a short talk, lead a prayer, and everyone is welcome to partake.
We call ourselves a family church, which means that families and children are involved. We have a lot of singles as well. Many people describe our services by saying that the Holy Spirit shows up. That does not mean we do weird things, but it does mean that he inspires our time together.
If meeting in a barn or at a photo studio sounds too personal, don't worry. We have visitors all the time. We usually start off with a donut or bagel and a cup of coffee and visit for 30 minutes.. People will introduce themselves to you. The most threatening thing may be a handshake and a smile.
We do not have a full time pastor or preacher. Our members usually share in this responsibility. We occasionally have a guest speaker, but don't get the impression that our messages are not challenging or up lifting. Most of the messages are outstanding.
We communicate to our visitors and members via email and text messages. There is usually one message a week that tells where we are meeting and any special events, e.g. potluck or meals that are also taking place. If you want to be on our list just text your contact info to the church texting number 833-224-7959. We will acknowledge receipt of your info via text.
