Welcome

Come as you are.

We don’t pretend to be perfect. We don’t pretend to have all of the answers. But we can commit to this: our desire is to bless God’s heart with our lives. We come together to worship the only one who deserves it all… Jesus.

Meet our pastor

Dr. Rimi

Born a Muslim in war-torn Kosovo. Then an atheist philosopher. Then, in a blizzard, three seconds changed everything.

Our story

It began in a backyard.

Amid the pandemic of 2020, God made it clear that it was time to open a church. We rented some chairs, hooked up some cables, and just kept praying. The vision: a place of love, truth, and new beginnings, and a prayer that God would kindle another great awakening.

Pastor Rimi was raised a Muslim, later became an atheist, and then encountered Jesus in a radical, supernatural way. Missionary, scholar (PhD, University of Birmingham), and author of The Supernatural and the Circuit Riders.

What we believe

Five things we hold on to.

An open Bible

God’s Word

The Bible, and only the Bible, is the authoritative Word of God. Its truth sets us free.

John 17:17 · 2 Tim 3:16

Salvation for All

Jesus died and rose for everyone. Every. Single. Person. No exceptions.

1 Tim 2:4 · Titus 2:11
People worshiping

Acts of the Spirit

The Holy Spirit lives in us and gives gifts that bring hope and wonder.

Acts 1:8 · 1 Cor 12
Hands raised in worship

Becoming New

When God awakens us, we are forever changed. Prayer draws us close.

Rom 12:2 · Phil 4:6
