Let’s hit rewind on a year full of heart, hope, and Holy Spirit vibes. Here’s how we made love local together in 2024.

Meet our new Duke intern, Victoria Pannullo!

Join us this September at The Local Church for a new series, Take Heart: Reclaiming the Joyful and Liberating Way of Jesus. We’ll dive into Paul’s letter to the Philippians, exploring how joy—real, unshakable joy—can be found even in the hardest times. This isn’t an escape from life’s challenges, but an invitation to receive God’s heart and let it transform us. Whether you’re new or have been with us for years, come rediscover joy and take heart with us!

We’re excited to announce the return of Operation Clear the Lists for the 2024 Back-to-School season. Operation Clear the Lists isn't just about buying school supplies; it's about creating an environment where our superhero educators can focus on what they do best – teaching and nurturing the next generation.

We’re excited to offer three ways you can continue your rewilding journey.

The work of God in our lives is so often the same: in the deepest parts of ourselves, in the wounds and the hurt and the pain and all that is wild and untamed, God is moving, brooding, hovering, speaking, calling us into being.

We often come across things that move us, challenge us, or inspire us. Field Notes is designed to be a place where we can share these things with each other, building a sense of community and support along the way.

Meet our new summer intern, Isabel Packevicz!

The United Methodist Church's Postponed 2020 General Conference made historic decisions to remove harmful language and affirm LGBTQ+ inclusion, finally aligning with The Local Church’s long-held values of celebrating the sacred worth of all people.

We’re so excited to share the details of our fourth annual Diaper Dump!
