:: NEW HOME GROUP – Together in the Storm

Have you ever felt alone in your suffering? Like you were lost in a sea of pain without anyone around to throw out a line and save you? Have you had questions of how to live on the other side of death and loss? Maybe you’ve wondered where a good God was hiding while you were consumed by the sorrow of loss?

If you’ve ever grieved, experienced loss, or suffered, we have a community for you. Starting today at 3pm, a new Home Group here at Dresden is launching to provide a space of support, open dialogue, and community. Together in the Storm aims to seek God and goodness in a world covered in pain and uncertainty. Come on out and find community in the storm.
