Day:TuesdayTime of day:Evening Area of town:South BellinghamLifestage:Any AdultGender Mix:Mixed Description: Estuary is a place where people come for conversation. Honest conversation. Not ideological warfare, but mutually respectful attempts to understand one another and to learn to appreciate different perspectives and viewpoints. Estuary is a place where different ideas and ideologies meet. Where participants allow themselves to be exposed to new ways of thinking, where listening may be as important as talking, where being open to feedback will force you to “hear yourself think”. We also believe that in doing so we form new friendships. We build a unique new community. We may learn to love one another in ways we didn’t realize were possible.
Led by Noah Martin, this group meets on Tuesday nights from 6:00-7:30pm at Hillcrest.

Day:ThursdayTime of day:Evening Area of town:North BellinghamLifestage:Any AdultGender Mix:Women Description: We all struggle sometimes, and some of us struggle daily. It could be dealing with grief or loss, chronic pain, financial struggle, addictions, or just a sense of no direction where it seems like God is silent. I know I’ve been there and the only thing that has helped me put one foot in front of the other is Jesus by my side—walking there with me. This group is intended to support, pray for each other and encourage one another to bring God into all of it. We might go through a study, walk through the Scriptures or just pray for each other. But my hope is that we will learn and grow to understand that God is always with us and He cares deeply for our pain.
This group will be meeting every other week on Thursday nights from 6:30-8:00pm.
