What is BondFire?
BondFire is our weekly Wednesday night gathering where we come together to connect, explore, learn, and have a little fun! Each week brings something different, from meaningful conversations and spiritual reflection to games, creative activities, workshops, and opportunities to share our interests and talents.
BondFire is about building relationships, getting to know one another beyond Sunday mornings, and creating a community where everyone has something to contribute. BondFire is open to members, friends, newcomers, and anyone looking for connection and community. There’s no expectation that you attend every week, and you don’t have to participate in every activity. Come when something interests you, bring a friend, or simply stop by to spend time with others.
What Happens at BondFire?
Community-Led Gatherings
Some evenings are all about the interests, ideas, and talents of our community. Members and friends share their knowledge, lead activities, introduce new hobbies, or bring people together around something they love. Activities might include games, creative projects, educational presentations, group discussions, and more.
Vespers: A Time for Reflection (1st & 3rd Wednesdays)
Our Vespers gatherings offer a quieter opportunity to reconnect with ourselves and one another through music, readings, meditation, and spiritual reflection. These evenings create space to slow down in the middle of a busy week.
Food & Fellowship (Every week)
Sharing food is one of the easiest ways to build connections! BondFire offers opportunities to gather around a meal, catch up with friends, and meet new people. Food arrangements:
- 1st Wednesdays of the month: Pizza
- 2nd Wednesdays: Soup
- 3rd Wednesdays: Tacos
- 4th (and 5th, when applicable) Wednesdays are potluck style (bring a dish to share + a list of ingredients).
