BRING THE WHOLE FAMILY!

Are You Tired? Worn Out? Feeling Far From Home?

Life has a way of making us feel like weary travelers — juggling stress, navigating uncertainty, and hoping for peace that often feels just out of reach. And while Christmas is supposed to be “the most wonderful time of the year,” for many, it’s filled with pressure, loneliness, or a longing for something more.

You’re not alone. And you don’t have to stay in that place.

We Understand How Heavy the Journey Can Feel

At A Fresh Wind Church, we believe God meets us right where we are — in our weariness, in our questions, and even in the places where we feel far from home. The Christmas story is filled with people on a journey, and in their stories, we find hope for ours.

Join us this December, as we discover the hope, peace, and joy God still offers weary hearts today.
Plan Your Visit for Sunday, December 21st @ 9am or 11am so we can save you a spot and prepare a free gift for you when you arrive! We can’t wait to see you!

Activities for kids and families include:
📸 Photo Booth
🎄 Live Christmas Music
☕️ Free Hot Chocolate Bar

WHAT CAN I EXPECT?

In total, an A Fresh Wind Church service is about 75 minutes in length. Services begin with the Fresh Wind worship team leading the church in music - song lyrics are projected onto the screens so you can sing along and/or engage with worship however you feel most comfortable. After the music portion of the service is complete, one of our pastors will come up to share an encouraging and hope-filled message about Jesus.

WHAT’S THE CULTURE LIKE AT A FRESH WIND?

Sunday’s at A Fresh Wind Church are exciting, casual, and relaxed. You’ll find contemporary music, videos, personal stories, and relevant messages that will encourage, challenge, and equip you in your relationship with God. You're invited to come as you are and expect to feel welcomed as our guest.

WHAT ABOUT MY KIDS?

We believe that kids should have a blast at church every single week - and at Fresh Wind Kids, we make this a priority. The other thing we make a priority is your children’s safety. Because of that, we have a detailed check-in process for our Fresh Wind Kids Ministry the first time that you visit. You’ll want to arrive a few minutes early if possible to get signed in for the Fresh Wind Kids Ministry experience. Head to the Welcome Desk when you arrive and one of our friendly volunteers will help you sign in and answer any question you have.
Fresh Wind Kids Ministry is offered at every A Fresh Wind service inside our Student Center for kids ages infant through Grade 6.

Nursery: Infants - Preschool
Kids Ministry: K - 6th grade
Youth Ministry: FWY Students are invited to a special youth meet up and to worship with us in the main auditorium. Then, come back at 6pm for a service designed just for them!

🎄  meet you at the front door
🎄  help you get your kids checked-in

Pastor Ryan and Joy

Hey there!

My name is Ryan and I have the privilege of serving as one of the pastors here at A Fresh Wind.

I believe that you are uniquely wired by God for a specific purpose, and that unless you figure out what that purpose is, you'll never be truly fulfilled.

Luckily, God desires a relationship with you and wants to reveal His purpose to you.

Here at A Fresh Wind, we want to help you uncover your purpose by discovering more in Christ. So whether you know exactly what your purpose is, you've been running from it for a while, or you have absolutely no idea where to even start looking...

We believe the answer is found in Jesus. And in Him, there is always infinitely more.

🏠 I’ll Be Home for Christmas

This 4-part Christmas series looks at the journey of Christ’s birth through the eyes of those who were tired, overlooked, rejected, or far from home. Their stories show us that God is near — closer than we think — and that He leads us home even when the path feels long.

12/7 - Far from Home (10AM)

Even when life takes unexpected turns, God’s promises travel with us.

12/14 - The God Who Makes Space (10AM)

When the world shuts you out, God still makes room for you. Plus enjoy a special Christmas performance from FWkids!

12/21 - Outside Looking In (9AM & 11AM)

Christmas Sunday, discover God’s invitation that goes first to those who feel furthest away, as we launch a brand new service.

12/24 (7pm) - Coming Home

Christmas Eve, we gather for a candlelight service as we learn that Christmas is God’s declaration that home has come to us.

New Here Gathering 🎉

We'd love the opportunity to get to know you more and help you take your next step. On the first Sunday of each month after the 11AM Service we host a New Here Gathering where you can come meet our team, ask questions, and learn more about the purpose and mission of A Fresh Wind Church.
We hope to see you at our next gathering!
