Next Steps

Abbey Way is a faith community which is committed to an integrative and wholistic approach to living in Christ supported by common spiritual practice and corporate rhythms. We understand church is more than a gathering on Sunday for worship but also includes an on-going intentional learning and growing in opening our hearts and lives daily to each other and the world as Jesus instructs.

If you would like to find out more about Abbey Way Covenant Church, here are a few things you can do.

First, schedule a visit with us. If you plan on bringing children, we will contact you before your visit so to help you and your children know what to expect when you come to Abbey Way

Second, sign up for our Email Newsletter to get the latest news about Abbey Way.

Third, read Seeking God by Esther de Waal. This book is one of the best resources to give understanding of what the "abbey way" is all about.

Fourth, participation at Abbey Way is about a commitment to intentional relationships formed and shaped by spiritual practices. Questions to consider: Where are you currently connected to others? How do these relationships help you sustain your life in God? What spiritual practices give you life? Are you willing to make space for new relationships and ways of encountering God? Consider making space for biblical meditation (lectio), going on a silent retreat, or praying The Divine Hours. Find out more about our practices and principles.

Fifth, get to know someone at Abbey Way. Talk to them about their experience.

Sixth, read about Abbey Way's partners and leadership.

We look forward to see who God will add to our number as we walk the abbey way together. The core community will again be open in February 2009 to new participants for an initial introductory commitment. Until then, let us know if you would like to visit Abbey Way. Stay tuned to future gatherings to learn more what Abbey Way is about.
