Every Thursday.Exaltation. Encounter.
A weekly night for the next generation to exalt and encounter the living God—through His Word, His Spirit, and His presence.
More than a watered-down faith.
The Gathering was founded by Luke Thompson and Olivia Gardner in January 2026. It's a weekly Thursday night meeting built around one conviction: the next generation deserves more than a watered-down faith.
This is a space primarily for teens ages 13–17—but the door is wide open to everyone. Luke and Olivia believe sound doctrine belongs to the whole church, not just one age group, and that everyone deserves access to the real, living Gospel.
The goal of every gathering is exaltation and encounter. Not performance, not programming—but the manifest presence of God that transforms hearts and brings His Kingdom to bear on real lives.
