Stories about us.

Here’s what those in our church & community are saying about us…

 

“At around age 7, I had my first break-up. I broke up with the church. I didn’t break up with God or Jesus, but the Church I was done with. 

And here I am. Still a non-believer, but ever so much more curious about the gifts that faith – whatever flavor it is – can bring to one’s life. I wonder – and this wonderment is what keeps me coming back. 

An experience I had 20 years ago may have planted a seed, but this community is watering it.  I don’t know what it will grow into, but I feel like the barren wilderness is becoming a bit more fertile.”

— Patti

“No other church we know welcomes such a diverse congregation and opens up to discuss what others deem ‘uncomfortable’ topics. That is how we all grow is by working through the awkwardness together and doing it with love. So proud to have you all at Hyperion!”

“When I walk into a Well space, I am seen and loved, not for what I can do or give, but because of who I am, showing up with all my flaws and idiosyncrasies, yet loved completely, nonetheless.”

— Lexy

“Each person is on their own spiritual path and those do not look alike. I feel accepted for being myself here. We are transparent with one another. The good the bad and the ugly parts of the human experience are accepted.”

— Shannon

“The Well is a place where doubts and concerns are not only welcomed, but invited and affirmed.”

— Greg

“Since I’ve been a part of this wonderfully imperfect and perfect group of people I’ve learned how it feels to be fine just the way I am. And because of this I’m learning to love God, myself, and the person sitting next to me the same way. No strings.”

— Deb

“At The Well, I do not have to be anything other than what I am. From there, I have the freedom to accept myself, and then the freedom to grow.”

— Scott
