🎃🔥 Our youth had a blast at the pumpkin patch! From smashing pumpkins as a healthy way to let go of anger and burdens, to playing pumpkin ball and enjoying a fire with s’mores! 💜

🌱 Looking for a Fresh Start?

Faith doesn’t always come with easy answers. Sometimes we have questions. Sometimes we’ve been hurt or disillusioned by the church. Sometimes we’ve stepped away from faith altogether and aren’t quite sure what coming back could look like.

Fresh Start is a space for all of that.

Join Seth & Julie Hall every Wednesday at 6:15 PM for honest conversation, Scripture, questions, and community—without the expectation that you have everything figured out.

Seth and Julie have lived in Anna for five years, have four kids and two grandkids, and have deep roots in the area. They love spending time with family, traveling, sports, the outdoors, and being part of their community.

Come with your questions. Come with your doubts. Come exactly where you are. There’s room for you here. 💙

Want to join them? Message our page or email Julie & Seth at [email protected].
