A Simple Church Network

Thanks for taking time to stop by! We are glad that you found us!

Open House is a network of simple churches that seeks to connect people to Jesus, one another, and to their unique role in God's mission. Through weekly gatherings in places like homes, cafes, coffee shops and book stores, we meet to encourage, teach, and develop disciples.

We'd love to see you connect with us and begin a journey of following Jesus in the midst of authentic community. Just contact us with the link above to see where and when the current simple churches are meeting and make plans to come join us in the future!
