Located in Lancaster, PA, we are a growing network of Jesus-followers and home fellowships committed to sharing our lives with the world around us. Believing that God calls his followers to be a blessing, we desire to see God's kingdom transform our broken and hurting world as we love, serve, and disciple those around us.
With no "official" church buildings, we emphasize a Christian expression that is simple and authentic, valuing what each person has to offer. We don’t rely on programs, facilities, or paid staff persons to do the work, but believe each person should actively use their gifts and abilities as member of Christ’s body, the church. We meet in homes (house churches, simple churches) for weekly times of strengthening and encouragement and have a larger network wide "Celebration" gathering once a month. However, we believe that the Church is a living community that should extend beyond a weekly religious activity. We like to use the term "doing life together" as a way of expressing how we live out our faith on a daily basis.
We are multi-generational and multi-cultural. Many of us have been shaped by time spent in other countries as teachers and businesspersons living missional lives there. Some individuals in The Net are only in Lancaster for as a season of learning before moving on to other places, while others have lived here their whole lives.
If you currently don’t have a church you are a part of and are interested in how you could join us on your faith journey, feel free to contact us. If you currently attend a church, we encourage you to find ways of becoming more involved in what God is doing there.
There is information about upcoming events on our calendar page, or you can contact us here.
