College & Young Adults

Young Adult Thursday Nights

Young Adults (in their 20’s and 30’s) meet up each Thursday at 2705 Park Ave from 6-8 p.m. for a meal, conversation, and Bible study. This group desires to build lasting friendships in a welcoming and relaxed environment. Each week dinner is served along with interactive conversations around the stories of the Bible. As you navigate adulthood, we invite you to join this group in discovering that God’s love for you isn’t dependent on success or failure. Instead, every experience is an opportunity to learn something new about yourself and God’s expansive love. 

We are guided by the idea that “we make the road by walking.” That is to say, your life is still in the making. There are many choices yet to be made that will add to your story. If life is to be lived to its fullest, we’ve got to embrace all of it. Through God’s revelation in the Bible, God’s incarnation in the person of Jesus, and God’s empowering gift of the Holy Spirit, we seek to discover more about our own life and how we can join God in bringing hope and meaning to the world God has given us. 

Right now we are on Summer break with special events on different days throughout the summer. Join us this Fall starting back in September every Thursday night at 6 p.m.!
