FAQ's about summer hangouts

Have fun - Build Relationships

What are hangouts?
Hangouts are an opportunity for you to build friendships around common interests and hobbies. Hangouts are for the purpose of building friendships and helping others connect to church.
Where do hangouts meet?
Hangouts meet throughout the week in homes, at the church, at restaurants, or at the athletic field. Hangouts meet at locations throughout our community.
When do hangouts meet?
This varies depending on hangouts and the leader. All hangouts either meet weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly. The time of day varies as well. Some are daytime, some are evenings, others meet in the mornings. When you sign up for a hangout, the times are listed so that you can determine if the hangout you are interested in fits your schedule.
Can I join more than one hangout?
Yes, but we do not want you to over-extend yourself. We recommend joining no more than two hangouts and committing to both for the entire summer.

Summer hangouts begin the week of June 2-8, and end the week of August 4-10.
