Our First Fellowship 42 Cookout

A few weeks ago we held our first gathering as Fellowship 42—a simple BBQ cookout in a barn. No stage, no production—just people showing up, sharing food, and having honest conversations.

We grilled burgers, passed around side dishes, and filled the space with conversation and laughter. Kids played, adults talked, and for a few hours, it felt like what church is supposed to be: real people gathering with purpose.

The setup was informal. Folding chairs, paper plates, and coffee brewed beside power tools and stacked lumber. It wasn’t polished, but it was genuine.

This kind of gathering reminds us of why we’re doing this. We’re not building something flashy—we’re building something faithful. A place where people are known, Scripture is central, and community matters.

Thanks to everyone who showed up, stayed late, and made it what it was. We're just getting started.
