What is Open House?<\/h3>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Open House is an opportunity to <\/span>learn<\/span><\/strong> about <\/span>Black Rock Church, <\/span>meet <\/span><\/strong>church leaders and <\/span>staff members, and <\/span>connect <\/span><\/strong>with ministries <\/span>or areas that you\u2019re passionate about.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

We do all of this over a <\/span>complimentary lunch<\/span><\/strong> <\/span>once a month!<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

Who is it for?<\/h3>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re <\/span>new to our church community<\/span><\/strong>, we\u2019d <\/span>love for you to join us at Open House! We truly <\/span>think it\u2019s your best first step in getting plugged<\/span> <\/span>in here.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019ve been at Black Rock for a while, but<\/span> <\/span>you\u2019ve <\/span>never gotten involved <\/span><\/strong>in more than<\/span> <\/span>attending Sunday morning service, we\u2019d also love <\/span>to see you there!<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

We strongly believe that Open House is the best<\/span> <\/span>next step for you if you\u2019re in either of these categories!<\/span><\/p>\n

Kids are welcome to join us at Open House sessions.<\/span> <\/span>We have activity booklets and food for them when <\/span>they join!<\/span><\/p>\n

What can I expect?<\/h3>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

At Open House, we start by having lunch together after both<\/span> <\/span>our Contemporary services and get to know each other as <\/span>we eat.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

After lunch, a staff member will share some info about the<\/span> <\/span>history, values, and beliefs of Black Rock.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

During the last part of our time together, volunteers and<\/span> <\/span>staff answer any questions you have and help you get<\/span> <\/span>plugged into any ministries or areas you\u2019re interested in.<\/span><\/p>\n
