Who We Are
The Well Church began in a particular season, shaped by both longing and restraint. We did not start with a rush to launch programs or fill calendars. Instead, we began with a shared sense that many people, including ourselves, were weary. We had grown tired of hurried faith, thin relationships, and church experiences that felt louder than they were deep. We sensed a need for a different pace that made room for healing, attentiveness, and relationship.
Why “The Well”
Throughout Scripture, wells are places of encounter, provision, and return. People come to wells not for spectacle, but because life depends on them. They are ordinary places where people slow down, draw deeply, and return again. Wells are sources of life along the way, rather than destinations in themselves.
In the Gospels, Jesus meets people at wells and speaks of living water that reaches beneath appearances and addresses the deeper thirst of the human heart. These encounters are unhurried and personal. Jesus meets people as they are and stays with them long enough for truth and grace to surface.
We chose the name The Well because it reflects what we are seeking to become: a place of faithful return. Not a stage to perform on, but a place to draw from. Not a destination to arrive at, but a community learning to abide, remaining near to Christ and receiving life from Him over time.
Our Hope
The Well Church does not exist to impress, but to remain faithful. We hope, over time, to become a community marked by maturity and health: people learning to live honestly before God, caring for one another patiently, and following Jesus in the midst of ordinary life. We trust that God is at work even now, even when growth feels slow, incomplete, or unseen.
We are still early in this work. Our aim is not to present a finished church, but to grow steadily and faithfully under God’s care.
Going Deeper
Who we are as a church has been shaped slowly, through prayer, discernment, and shared conviction. If you’re interested in the commitments and theological foundations that shape our life together, we invite you to explore a fuller articulation of what matters most to us:
