In early summer of this year (2026), the leadership of South Church affirmed God’s calling for us to join the Messy Church USA ministry movement. We are presently gathering a diverse team to guide the process and bring our first “Blessings Banquet” (as Pastor Rich loves to call it) into being.
If you are interested in helping create church for all ages in a faithfully fresh way, please reach out to Pastor Rich today! Non-church members of inclusive Christian faith are welcome to inquire.
Why Messy Church?
Makes faith accessible and engaging for all ages
Builds relationships across generations
Offers a safe space for those outside traditional church
Provides a simple rhythm as monthly gatherings provide connection without weekly commitment
Creates a community of joy and belonging
Messy Church is a fresh expression of church for families and individuals who may not connect with traditional worship. It’s playful, prayerful, and welcoming to everyone.
