fellowship done differently​
​
When we started this fellowship, our desire was to think outside of the regular church box and design our gatherings around community, appreciation for each other, and respect for each person's God-given gifts. Our unique approach provides an atmosphere that fosters learning and spiritual growth for members of all ages. Our Spirit-led, out-of-the-box thinking has led us to design our meetings around teacher-led interactive services and family-integrated children's church.​
The first thing you will notice about our fellowship is that we do not conform to the norm. While we emphasize the importance of our relationships with Jesus and each other, of Biblical grace-focused teaching, and of growing in the truth and knowledge of Jesus, our service is styled quite differently from a typical modern church service.
incredible new experience
We invite you to participate in the discussion as we know the value in learning from each other, asking questions, and taking time to dig into topics each time we gather. We are not in a rush to polish off a particular book. We feel it is more important to know the Word of God than to say we have read it. Each session is led by the pastor or a qualified teacher, but they do not simply offer a monologue as you observe from your chair. It is their job to provide insight and teaching as they lead and guide the discussion to keep it going and on topic. You are not required to ask questions or give input, but you are invited to do so. We only ask that you respect everyone's time and participation, and do not start monologuing yourself. ​
we love kids​
​Children who are able to join in the discussion or be fairly quiet while their parents/guardians participate are welcome to come. If you have smaller children, please contact us to discuss. We do have the option to provide a background-checked childcare worker, but because we are a small fellowship, we offer that on an "as needed" basis.​
We are currently meeting in a home in the
12 Oaks Community
Attire: Please come dressed. We will too. We don't have rules. Dress up, come in shorts, or wear your favorite ugly Christmas sweater.
​
Serving in the Fellowship: Please talk to Phillip or Laurel if you are interested in serving in any area of this body of Christ or to learn about our specific requirements for our teachers.

tithes & offerings​
We believe God appreciates a cheerful giver (2 Cor 9:7). Giving to a church or charitable organization is a beautiful act of love. However, we do not require people to give to our ministry as you should be led by the Spirit when it comes to any offering, whether financial or otherwise. Transparency is important to us so we offer to provide members with general financial information as it is requested. We are a non-profit corporation and are able to receive tithes and offerings. If you would like more information, please speak to one of our ministry leaders or email us at info@mattshouse.org
