The Gathering Place

The Gathering Place We are a local church with a global vision. Located at the old Valentine Theater. Sundays @ 10 am We are a ministry founded on biblical principles.

We passionately pursue the Fathers heart and His wisdom. Everything we do is to honor God and to further His kingdom. We are loving the broken back to wholeness and believing our neighbors and the nations will be blessed through our obedience. We are here to encourage and to empower people to walk out their purpose and prophetic destiny.

This Memorial Day, we pause to honor and remember the brave men and women who gave everything for our freedom. 🇺🇸

Their sacrifice will never be forgotten.
Today we reflect with gratitude, humility, and hope.

From all of us at The Gathering Place we pray you have a meaningful and peaceful Memorial Day with those you love.

Ever feel like something’s just… off?

Not physical.
Not something a quick fix can solve.
Just heavy. Stuck. Drained. Anxious. Overwhelmed.

You’re not alone.

Sometimes what we’re carrying runs deeper than surface-level solutions—and it doesn’t just go away on its own.

✨ This Thursday, we’re making space for real breakthrough.
Nothing weird. Nothing forced. Just honest, powerful prayer for people who are ready for something to actually change.

Whether you believe, doubt, or aren’t sure what you believe—
you’re welcome here.

Ever feel like something’s just… off?

Not physically.
Not something a quick fix solves.
Just heavy. Stuck. Drained. Anxious. Overwhelmed.

You’re not the only one.

Sometimes what we’re carrying isn’t meant to be carried alone, and it’s deeper than what surface-level advice can fix.

✨ Every Thursday, we’re creating space for real breakthrough.
Not weird. Not forced. Just honest, powerful prayer for people who want something to actually change.

Whether you believe, doubt, or don’t know what you believe…
you’re welcome here.

What does the Bible really say about healing?

Is healing still for today?
Does God still move in that way?
What does Scripture actually teach?

Join us this Wednesday as we open the Bible and explore what it says about healing—simple, honest, and powerful.

🕕 6:00 PM

602 S Clinton St, Defiance

Whether you’re curious, skeptical, or believing for a breakthrough—this is for you.

👉 Come learn. Come ask questions. Come expect something real.

🚨 Important Update 🚨

Due to the severe storm that moved through downtown Defiance yesterday, our building is still without electricity and heat.

Because of this, we will not be able to hold our Resurrection Sunday service today.

We’re disappointed, but your safety and comfort matter most.
We’ll keep you updated as things are restored.

Stay safe, and we love you all ❤️
