Start a Reframe Church Gathering in Your City
Reframe Church Gatherings are simple, meaningful, Jesus-centered communities that meet in bars, coffee shops, restaurants, homes, and other everyday spaces. If you feel called to create a place where people can explore faith without judgment, you’re in the right place.
WHAT IS A REFRAME GATHERING?
A Reframe Church Gathering is a small, conversational, open community centered on Jesus - built around tables instead of stages.
It’s:
Simple
Relational
Honest
Spirit-led
Unpressured
Accessible to people who feel hurt or hesitant about church
The goal isn’t a service.
It’s a space for stories, questions, friendship, prayer, and rediscovering faith in everyday ways.
WHO CAN START A GATHERING?
Everyday Followers of Jesus
You don’t need a title - just a heart for people and a desire to create safe, welcoming spaces.
Ministry Leaders & Pastors
Use Reframe Church Gatherings as outreach, discipleship, or as part of a microchurch/missional strategy.
People Returning from Hurt
Your story can become someone else’s healing. Many hosts start out of their own restoration.
