“You weren’t walking alone.” – Inspired by the Road to Emmaus (Luke 24)
Just as the apostles returned to Jerusalem to share what had happened to them on the road to Emmaus, The Gathering is a night for students to come together and recognize that they’re not walking this journey of faith alone.
This monthly event for 7th–12th grade students is more than just a youth night—it’s a space for community, connection, and encounter. It’s a place where students can take a breath from the pressure of the world, show up exactly as they are, and know they’re seen, known, and loved.
🕊️ More Than an Event—It’s a Community
At The Gathering, we follow the rhythm of the Emmaus story:
We gather in friendship.
We listen to one another’s stories.
We recognize Christ in our midst—through food, fun, real conversations, and shared experience.
Whether you’re a regular churchgoer, brand new to faith, a friend tagging along, or someone who just wants a safe place to belong—you are welcome here.
This is for the ones who feel overlooked. For the ones who aren’t sure if they fit in. For the ones who are curious, searching, or ready to grow deeper.
