Gatherings Vision from 2024 + for 2025

In 2024, We…

In a typical week, we hosted 41 gatherings for our community both on our campus and across Orange County.

We celebrated as 55 new people became part of our volunteer and event teams. Welcoming them into our team of 279 volunteers. 

It was exciting to welcome 102 people into our church community through our Newcomers luncheons + process 144 Connect cards for those who wanted to go deeper. 

Over the year, we facilitated four opportunities for baptism and celebrated as 69 people were baptized.

Oh, and we served 29,500 cups of coffee + tea! We absolutely love gathering with you over a cup of coffee!

Highlights

In November, we hosted Baptisms as part of our Gatherings. Whole familes came into the Sanctuary to celebrate as each person shared why they were choosing to take this next step in baptism.

The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make His face to shine upon you, and be gracious to you; the Lord lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace.”

Another major highlight was a night with our amazing team of 279 volunteers. We all got dressed up, enjoyed delicious Hors d'oeuvres, and acknowledged individuals who exemplified our vision and desire to create a culture of goodness.  

Looking forward to 2025…

As part of our vision to be a Jesus Formed Community, we desire to see more of our congregation engaged. We will do this by:

  • Expanding intentional times for connection in our courtyard by introducing monthly opportunities for family and friends to enjoy activities and treats. 

  • Making stage and seating changes in our Main Sanctuary to draw people closer. 

  • Upgrading our core production systems to engage more people.
