ALPHA
Darrin & Beth Simpson
Alpha is a safe space to question life, faith, and meaning. In Alpha we always begin with a meal, watch a video and have lots of small group discussions to process what we just heard. There are no dumb questions!
In Alpha, we create a safe space for candid, honest, open, and judgment-free conversations for anyone to explore the basics of the Christian faith. Whether you are a non believer, new to the Christian faith or have been a Christian for decades, Alpha is right for you!
We meet every Tuesday evening starting May 27th in the lobby from 6:00 - 8:00 PM at the ONE Church Leadership Center.
Dinner is always provided and we always eat together at 6:00 pm sharp!
Google Meet link is live at 6:30 PM
SIDE X SIDE
Joshua and Michelle Parlos – Married for almost 25 years with 4 children ranging from 14 - 23 years old. Our family life has been full of laughter, love, trying times, transparency, and open communication. Like many couples, we have faced our share of challenges not only in our years of marriage but our childhoods. From career changes, walking the path with a loved one struggling with addictions, financial stresses, anxiety, PTSD, sibling loss, loss of loved ones, and all the other usual ups and downs of marriage and raising children. Through it all, our relationship and faithfulness to Jesus Christ and each other has always seen us through each season of our lives.
Topic of Discussion - Sermon Notes. Each week we will dive a little more into the previous weeks message from Pastor Andy. This will be both a balance of structure yet making space to be led by the spirit too. We want to be able to take the time to minister to an individual and/or a couple if someone is coming in with a heavy heart, going through a difficult season, needs a little more TLC, etc. This will be a safe haven for each and every person. A place where you can come as you are. We encourage you to come expecting God to move in your life as we gather together as brothers and sisters in Christ. Doing life Side x Side can be so much more life giving than doing life alone.
Our Foundation & Why: Hebrews 10:24-25 “And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.”
This is a circle for those that want to get to know others, serious about growing as an individual or couple, are seeking to find connection with other believers, loves to laugh and not afraid to shed some tears along the way.
*Please make childcare arrangements (for all children over the age of 1) as there will not be any childcare provided at this time. If you need references for a babysitter, I'm happy to share.
