What to Expect

A gentle pause from the pace of everyday life. Not Alone Gathering will refresh your call to the movement of welcome and connect you with others in this journey.

Sunday Sept 27th at 5:30pm -Tuesday Sept 29th at 4:00pm

❋ Intentional Structure

We hope to flow from celebration to lament, vision casting to recommitment and endurance. Times will be gently guided, open to group participation, and quiet space to reflect—so the experience feels focused yet easygoing.

❋ Collaborative Time

Connection is a core part of the process. You’ll learn just as much from the group activities and networking as from the content itself.

❋ Friendly Facilitation

Spiritual guidance with Amanda Evans Opelt

Conviction & Courage with Nicole Martin

Q&A with Bri Stensrud 

❋ Welcoming Space

Our events prioritize comfort, safety, and respect—so you can show up as you are and fully engage in the process. Our community has grown quickly in love and depth and now we get to be together!

ITINERARY

Welcome & Worship

As everyone arrives, we take time to settle in, get comfortable, and begin connecting with those around us. The journey starts here with a night of worship and celebration.

Events will begin at 5:30

Monday Sept. 28th

Soul Care & Celebration

Together, we pause to consider our goals, hopes, and direction. This is about aligning with ourselves and with the journey ahead. This is a chance to reconnect with what brought you here—your questions, your hopes, your turning points—and consider how they’ve shifted or deepened.

Let’s celebrate together what the Lord has built and ask Him, “What’s Next?”

Events from 9:00am - 8:00pm

Tuesday Sept. 29th
