Welcome to New Story
New to New Story—or just curious about what we're all about?
Welcome to New Story is a relaxed afternoon designed to help you meet a few pastors, share a meal, and explore some ways we might support you on your journey with God. Along the way, you’ll hear a bit about who we are as a church and why we do what we do. We'll also invite you to think about your next step.

New Story Women gather each month for a time of connection & encouragement at Gather at the Well. Join us from 9:30-11am on Saturday, May 2. Followed by a time of prayer (Pray at the Well) from 11-11:30.

The Rationality of Nature Small Group
The Rationality of Nature is a 8-week small group exploring matters of faith & science led by Jen and Toady Tudor.
Expanding our knowledge of science deepens our understanding of God who spoke all things into being. As Romans 1:20 says, “For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse.”

Men's Backpacking Trip
Men, escape the noise of everyday life and step into the quiet beauty of Shenandoah National Park for a backpacking "retreat" designed to help you slow down and take stock of your life. Over a few days on the trail, we’ll unplug from distractions, share meaningful conversations, and create space to reflect on where you are and where God may be leading you next. If you’re craving fresh air, honest community, and time to reset spiritually, this trip is for you.
$50 per person. All experience levels welcome. We will also have a mandatory practice hike and gear shakedown on Sat, Apr 18 (10:30am) at Valley Forge Park.
Next Steps Course
Your soul didn’t come with an instruction manual—so we made this course.
You were made for more than busyness, burnout, or just getting by. Next Steps is a 4-week course designed to help you slow down, reconnect with what matters, and discover who you are in God’s story. Whether you're new to New Story or ready to go deeper, this is a chance to explore who you are, what you’re made for, and how to take your next step toward a deeper, more grounded life with Jesus.
Childcare and dinner are provided.
The Community Practice
In a lonely, fractured culture, Jesus offers a new kind of family. Despite the unprecedented connectivity of the modern era, genuine community is vanishing. Isolation, transience, and superficiality can sabotage our formation into people of mature love. But through Jesus, we enter a new kind of family that offers intimacy, joy, healing, and commitment.
This course will equip you to:
• Build rhythms of intentional connection with others
• Create safe spaces in which to share your joys and sorrows
• Confess your brokenness and begin healing
• Develop committed relationships that grow in mature love
Starting Monday, April 20. This 4-week course will take place on Monday nights, 6-8pm. Dinner and childcare are provided every week.
