Who Are We?
About The Gathering
Encountering The Goodness of God
The Gathering is a network of simple churches currently located in Santa Cruz and Santa Clara Counties. We are passionately focused on the presence of God and blessing our local community, and beyond. Our vision is to catalyze personal, regional, and global transformation by the manifest presence of God. Another word for this is revival. We know that God is real, that God is good, and that when we come into His presence great things happen.
We are also a community characterized by extraordinary hope because we have seen God do great things -- even miracles of healing, recovery, and redemption. At The Gathering we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to His purpose. That is why we have a saying that "the story isn't over until the story is good!"
We invite you to get to know us more by browsing around this website. Or feel free to check out one of our services via live stream by clicking HERE.
