Summer at Imago Dei
While the summer is often a time of vacation and rest, at Imago Dei our church desires to continue growing in the way we encounter Jesus, are formed by His presence, and sent on His mission to be the whole gospel to the whole person to the whole world. Community formation takes place during the summer through invitations like our Supper Clubs, Summer Studies, and Service. See below for all the ways you can get involved and join us!
Serve Day
June 13
This June, we will celebrate fifteen years of worshipping God in this building as Imago Dei Community! To lead up to this celebration, we want to gather as a community to roll up our sleeves and work together to spruce up our space. Join us for a service day on our campus where we'll do both indoor and outdoor projects, with the help of our friends who work at the Bible Project. This day will be family friendly, so plan to work right alongside your little ones. Please register in advance so we can plan accordingly.
Supper Clubs
Throughout the Summer
Join us at a Supper Club this Summer! The vision of Supper Clubs is to provide a space for deep, meaningful, and fun connections with our church community over a shared meal. This is a chance to meet new people and enjoy our Imago Dei family. Supper Clubs meet for one evening in small groups around the metro area to share in fellowship together.
We're adding more supper clubs in the coming weeks - check back often!
Summer Studies
Throughout the Summer
We're excited to introduce the launch of the Imago Dei School of Faith and Theology! Our vision is that through creating environments of theological and practical learning that we would explore and be equipped to live into the mystery of the whole gospel of Jesus Christ and grow in biblical literacy.
To kick this off, we are rolling out Summer Studies for you to participate in one or all! There will be classes focused on reading the Bible, relationships and marriage, church history, and more.
Summer Park Meetups
Throughout the Summer
The summer is a great time to spend time outdoors with other families with kids from our community. Join the Imago Dei Kids Summer Meet-Ups group to view and RSVP for park meet-ups, find and share your contact information with other parents/grown-ups, plan outings, and invite others to join you.
Park meet-ups will be hosted by Imago staff most Wednesdays from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. starting June 18th and continuing until August 20th.
