Wednesdays at 6:30pm in the Room 108

Thrive is a Biblical community that exists to help you find freedom from what is holding you back so that you can uncover joy, purpose, and a healthy life.

We believe you can break free from anger, co-dependency, substance abuse, or any other coping mechanism that is making life unmanageable.

Getting involved is simple:

1. Come to a weekly gathering
Join us on Wednesdays at 6:30pm in the Room 108 at the back side of the property. These evenings consist of teaching and time in small groups.

 


2. Share if you want to
When we break up into groups you choose how much (if any) of your story to share.


3. Build lasting community
With those who are finding hope and freedom alongside you.

It’s time to stop feeling stuck, stagnant, and alone, and instead
uncover joy, purpose, and a healthy life!

FAQs

It can seem scary and intimidating to walk into a room full of people you don’t know.
We get it. Here’s answers to some frequently asked questions.

What is Thrive?

At Grace Chapel’s Thrive Ministry, we know that you want to be a person who is healthy and has found your purpose. A key to that is knowing your identity in Christ and finding freedom from what is holding you back, within a Biblical community.

The problem is life is tough and can leave you feeling like the best you can do is cope. Plus, groups like this often come with a stigma that makes you feel singled-out, afraid to get involved, and embarrassed of what people might think of you. Thrive is not only recovery, it’s that and more!

What can I expect when I first arrive?

We meet every Wednesday at 6:30pm in Room 108 at Grace Chapel. The night will kick off with a large group meeting, then, we’ll break into separate men’s and women’s groups of 5-10 people. During these open share groups, each person has the opportunity to share without interruption about their journey for 3-5 minutes. There is no pressure or obligation to share until an individual is comfortable. What is shared in the group stays in the group. After the evening is over, feel free to stay back and hang out for a less structured time of getting to know each other..

Do you offer childcare?

Yes! Childcare is offered for kids birth-5th grade for Wednesday night Thrive meetings. Childcare is not offered for Thrive Step Studies throughout the week. Children MUST be registered for childcare by Tuesdays at noon for the Wednesday night Thrive meetings. You can register your kids for childcare HERE. All childcare volunteers are background checked. Bring your kids to the kids check-in inside Entrance 11 and a volunteer will guide you to their classroom.
