Ministries & Opportunities

We believe that spiritual growth happens not just in the sanctuary, but through the hands-on work of justice, the warmth of community, and the creative expression of our souls. Our ministries and opportunities are designed to help us care for one another and the world around us.

Ministries: Caring and Action

Quarterly and Ongoing Outreach: We live our values through service. Every quarter, we partner with a local 501c3 organization—such as Animal Advocates of North Texas or CC's Carry Ons—to provide financial and community support. We also maintain an ongoing partnership with NEED (North East Emergency Distribution), where we send volunteers monthly to provide food and clothing to neighbors in transition. 

 

 

Care Team: Our mission is "Caring for each other in the Pathways community." We offer support during times of illness, grief, or crisis so that no one in our family feels alone. From friendly phone calls and cards to "Nook in a Basket" care packages, we are here to provide a sense of belonging. We also maintain a Reflection Nook at the church for private prayer and meditation.

  • Courageous Enough to Change (Recovery and Support): We provide a safe, non-judgmental space for the friends and family members of those struggling with addiction. This support group meets weekly on Wednesday evenings at 7:30 PM via Zoom and is open to everyone, regardless of whether their loved one is currently in recovery.


Opportunities: Community and Connection

Circle Dinners: We believe nothing establishes friendship quite like eating together. These monthly potluck gatherings are held in members' homes and are open to everyone, especially newcomers. Guests are randomly assigned to different hosts each month to ensure we all get to know one another in a relaxed, social setting. circle dinner

  • Pathways Arts Collaborative (PAC): PAC is an open group for members and friends who gather to create visual arts that enhance our spiritual space. From church banners and lanyards to personal hand-crafted projects, we find joy in making things together and fostering mutual creativity.

book group Women’s Book Group: Meeting on the 1st and 3rd Thursdays of each month at 1:00 PM, this hybrid group explores a diverse reading list ranging from contemporary fiction to philosophy. We welcome all women, visitors, and newcomers to join us for vibrant discussion and fellowship.

 

Mystic Path: For those who feel a call to explore metaphysical, Earth-centered, or intuitive spirituality, Mystic Path offers a monthly gathering on the second Thursday at 6:30 PM via Zoom. Whether you identify as Pagan, Wiccan, New Age, Shamanic, or are simply a seeker, this group explores "other ways of knowing" beyond the rational, celebrating the magic and transformative power of nature and love. mystic path
