Join us for Second Sundays this summer!
4:15pm on Sunday July 13, August 10 & September 14
If you’re curious about this new church that is starting on the corner of Bollinger & Miller, right between west San Jose and Cupertino, come join us at 4:15pm on the second Sunday of each month this summer (July 13, August 10, and September 14).
These preview services will give our neighbors a chance to come and see what we’re all about; the same goes for anyone who is interested in learning more about Jesus. At the same time, it will help us find and meet others who want to help us soft-launch this weekly worship service beginning Sunday October 12.
After launching this fall, who will the Sunday worship services be for?
As a new church, we have focused on building community and relationships, so that when we do start a weekly worship service this fall, everyone will know that they are welcome and wanted.
If you’re curious about Jesus, new to church, or have been disconnected from the church for a long time, you will find a place to plug in, with a style of service that is accessible, thought-provoking, and honoring.
If you’re searching for a church family where you can use your God-given gifts to become more like Jesus, you’ll also find a home here, to grow, be transformed, and to serve. You’ll also get to experience the joy of seeing others respond to God—perhaps for the very first time!
We will orient our Spirit-led service around the Christian Scriptures, with a spaciousness that allows us to respond to God as he speaks with us.
Together we will engage ancient and modern practices, which will include participating in communion every week. We will also share original music and liturgy that we write for our neighborhood, as well as classic hymns and historic prayers that have been giving people around the world hope and meaning for centuries.
We plan to follow every Sunday service with a community meal, where people can continue to connect around the table. Even though we’re grateful for the way tech improves our lives, we also know it can’t replace in-person interactions. There’s nothing like being with friends in real life.
So each week, we’ll have questions that we can discuss together over a meal, questions about what stood out to us in the service, and what’s going on in our lives. We’ll have the opportunity to get to know new people, and also get to experience being known. Together, we’ll create a safe space—whether you’re an extrovert or introvert, whether you want to go deep or are more comfortable listening than speaking, you are welcome here!
Of course, behind the scenes and beforehand, there will be people serving the community who want to help prepare and set up meals, greet people as they come in, run slides and sound, sing and play instruments, and more. If that’s you, let us know—a church service is a reflection of a church body, and takes many committed folks to make it possible!
What will Sundays look like?
