Somewhere I Belong.Belonging... It's a word we all desire. family, community, relevance, relationship, commitment, sacrifice; these are just a few words our culture has forgotten. While these words have been forgotten,you have never been. You belong with us... “If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.” -Mother Teresa

The DifferenceThe Tapestry is not just like every church. In a day and time when so many want to look just like the church next door, we have struggled to find our identity. From choosing our name in 2003, to starting in 2004, we are the original Tapestry Church. Come see what makes us different!

The Mission"Once worn threads now woven together by Spirit & Truth; a masterpiece creatively depicting the Glory of GOD."

Directions & TimesDon't miss out on a thing, but before you rush out the door in your over excitement that you finally have found that community of faith you've been waiting for, pause for a moment and print out these directions and times. We will see you then!

Message
The Methods will always and must always change, however the Message never changes! We find today that we still must preach the message of the cross. |

Adoration
There
must be more to this than simple worship. Where's the intimacy in that?
We will not settle for anything less than deep connection with GOD
& each other.

Covenant
No more broken promises. No more quitting when it gets tough. No more broken hearts. In a day when people can easily go their separate ways, we live in covenant. |

Cultural
Not a list. Not just laws. Not just on Sunday. We are believers and will allow our faith to invade all parts of our lives. Our love will show and will draw all people to GOD. |

Missional
With Consumerism crashing down all around us, the only path to take is a deeper one. One that gives back. What do you want to do with the rest of your life? |

So, you want a deeper commitment? You've probably thought to yourself at some somthing that sounded like, "There has got to be something deeper out there. I mean, I really enjoy discussing religious topics and I need something that gives me some direction and opportunity for personal growth."
We can totally understand this desire and we have created opportunities for you. We have two primary avenues for this kind of growth.

"...Or maybe more accurately, he's become the child he never was allowed to be; abiding in simple trust and wonder. He embraces even the darker shades of life as a part of some incredibly rich and profound tapestry; crafted masterfully by invisible hands of love." -William P Young The Shack Tapis GroupsWhat are Tapis Groups? They are the small group ministries of the Tapestry Church. "Tapis" is an antiquated, obsolete Greek term for small Tapestries. We felt this was the perfect name for our small groups. Currently, we have a few options for you if you are interested in being a part of a small group of believers that meet during the week in their homes for Bible Study, Prayer, Discussion, Book Studies, Worship and/or Fellowship. Groups Run from January - May & August - December If you are interested in joining a Tapis Group, we welcome you to contact us at connect(at)tapestrychurch.org, fillout our contact us form or a survey. Our current groups include: TO BE ANNOUNCED in AUGUST 2008 for the FALL!
Vineyard Bible Institute & Gateways Beyond VBI VBI is our local opportunity for training and education. We have been an extension of the Vineyard Bible Institute for the last year and a half. We offer VBI's courses as part of our Tapis (Small) Groups. That means for those who register, they can receive college level credit for classes taken as a part of our small group ministries. The courses vary on topic, however, we are currently offering the "Kingdom Theology" courses. Accredidation for VBI is through St Stephens University which allows us to offer the BA of Christian Studies Degree. This can be followed by the Master's Degree through Trinity Learning Community. Gateways Beyond The Tapestry encourages our students to attend the best schools and take every opporunity that affords them the best future possible no matter distance or time. Gateways Training School is the Tapestry's chosen off-site opportunity for learning. Gateways Training School is a part of Gateways Beyond. Gateways is located in Cyprus. It's vision is simple: "Gateways Beyond has a vision to train, equip, and launch young Messianic believers into world outreach. Our intensive six-month training school offers classroom study and practical experience, specifically for those believers with a clear call to Jewish world outreach. Areas of concentration include: intimacy with God, character building discipleship, worship & intercession, servanthood and Jewish outreach. Each school will culminate in a 4-6 week outreach, applying the classroom training to real life ministry." Watch a video from GTS.
Camps & RefreshingsThe Tapestry is known for their camps and refreshings. From their ski trips to the Annual Beach Refreshing, we believe in getting away and retooling. We consider these as great options not just for family and fun, but for learning and growth as well. We encourage you to come out and join us. Just watch the calendar and take part. We are so sold on the idea that we now own the Tapestry Reserve, 50 acres on land in WV for camping, prayer and meeting with the LORD. For more on the reserve, (CLICK HERE)
