IN PURSUIT OF VIBRANT DIVERSITY & UNWAVERING UNITY, WHEN ATTENDING A GATHERHOUSE GATHERING, WE ASK ALL TO CONDUCT THEMSELVES IN HUMILITY AND OBSERVE THIS COMMITMENT AND THE FOLLOWING GUIDELINES AS A FOUNDATION FOR HONORABLE ORDER IN THE ASSEMBLY.
WE COMMIT TO HONOR ONE ANOTHER BY CONSIDERING OTHERS MORE IMPORTANT THAN OURSELVES, JOINED TOGETHER IN PERFECT UNITY – WITH ONE HEART, ONE PASSION, AND UNITED IN ONE LOVE – WE RECOGNIZE ONLY THAT WHICH BUILDS UP AND ENCOURAGES THE ECCLESIA.
WE REMEMBER THERE ARE MANY GIFTS, BUT ONE SPIRIT WHO SPEAKS IN UNITY. FOR GOD IS NOT A GOD OF CONFUSION, BUT OF HARMONY WHO GUIDES HIS PEOPLE TO ACT IN A WAY THAT IS ALTOGETHER BEAUTIFUL, RESPECTABLE AND IN PROPER, HONORABLE ORDER.
WE COMMIT TO CELEBRATE THE VIBRANT DIVERSITY OF THE KINGDOM; WOVEN TOGETHER IN UNWAVERING LOVE & HUMILITY, WHOLLY UNITED IN CHRIST.
1 COR.12,14 | 1 PETER 2:4-5
COMMUNITY HONOR
While all things are lawful, not all things are helpful. “Let no one seek his own, but each one the other’s well-being.” (1 Cor. 10:24)
1. Personal expression should not exceed the volume of the corporate gathering & should be limited when a Gatherhouse leader is speaking/praying or during a congregational hush.
2. We encourage all to pray with and for other making sure to consider one’s personal space, however, our prayer and pastoral team will steward ministry times in the altar/center floor area when initiated by the Gatherhouse crew.
3. For the consideration of others and the safety of all, we ask that no personal instruments, implements and/or props (tambourines, shofars, sticks, banners, etc.) be brought into the gathering.
4. An intimate encounter with the Lord and a genuine response of praise & worship is our heart’s desire. In order to allow others in the gathering to engage with the Lord without distraction, be mindful that your worship expression is submitted to the order of the assembly and does not interrupt or disturb the flow of the gathering.
