a circle of friends nurturing communities of friendship for pastors, writers, and other pilgrims
The Genesis Project
Death & Resurrection
In 2001, Summit Community Church (formerly Arvada Grace Fellowship) in Westminster, CO, made the hard, courageous decision to bring her life as a church to a close. Through death, this faithful community participated in resurrection as they gifted their assets to start a non-profit, The Genesis Project, that would seed new life in a myriad of ways.
Our first decade, we partnered with the formation of new churches in Colorado, Iowa, Wyoming, Virginia, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, and South Carolina. Recognizing the need for spiritual friendship and soul care for pastors and for Christians working in a variety of vocations (especially writers), we shifted our efforts to nurture slow, purposeful spaces to foster sustained faithfulness, friendship, and energy toward shared creative efforts.
Our work is grassroots, close to the ground, and our space is currently full. Please check back for future opportunities.
