foyer (foi' er, foi ya')

n. an entry. It's the place in your home that serves as the welcome area for guests and new friends. It's the first step, and it's often your only chance to make your guests feel comfortable enough to return. That's exactly how we've designed our entry environments at ONE*. Our Sunday morning worship services are "foyer" environments. We want our guests to come back, so we do everything with them in mind. These environments are where most people will experience ONE* for the first time, and they serve as the perfect place to introduce newcomers to life at ONE*. So, come on in...

living room (liv'ing room)

n. a room in a home, with sofas, chairs, used for social activities, entertaining guests, etc. When guests arrive and are welcomed into your home, you invite them into the living room. Everyone finds a comfortable place to sit, and the interaction begins. At ONE*, this is where you connect with people like yourself. Smaller and more interactive than the foyer environment, these gatherings offer genuine opportunity to begin friendships...just like the living room in your home. Come into the living room and have a seat...

kitchen (kich'en)

n. a room or place for the preparation and cooking of food. Webster's definition doesn't help us much, does it? But think about it. What is the most popular room in your home? Where do you end up when friends or family come over? The kitchen. This is where lasting friendships are made. And that's the kind of environment we are striving for in our life groups. Life groups are where people meet consistently for Bible study and prayer, and commit to accountability, friendship and support. They are the safe place to open your heart, share your life, and ask the tough questions. Small group opportunities for adults include Life Groups and Care Groups. For students, life group time happens during Pulse and The Rock. Life groups are where life change happens here at ONE*, and we want to help you get there.
