Church Gatherings at Metro East

Twice a month, you will have the opportunity to safely gather in-person with our local church family. At Metro East, this will look like us gathering outdoors at 4:15 p.m. every other week starting on August 16. These meetings will last 45 minutes and will include singing, prayer, and communion once a month. We will still encourage social distancing and will require masks for those 9 years old and up. If you desire to continue to have fellowship afterward, pack a picnic and spend some time with your church community.

Join a Group

Need support? Looking to get involved? Maybe, during this extended period of social distancing, you're looking for a community to connect with for accountability and friendship. Or, maybe you want to dive into a new book or Bible study and read-along with others. Explore our virtual groups and find your people!
