Gathering with purpose, beyond a building

Who we are 

Gather Thousand Oaks is a Young Adult Ministry part of the greater ELCA Gather Network. Members come from all parts of Ventura County with different faith backgrounds and walks of life.  

Gather goes beyond the church building, creating community for those who need it!

Gather is a space for anyone who identifies as a young adult and... 

• Who doesn't have other young adults at their church

• Isn't closely tied to their church

• Who is involved in their church and wants to meet new people and connect their young adult community to other young adults throughout Ventura County.

• Who might not jive with traditional church

• Who want to ask questions and dive deeper together

• Who may have had a hard time finding a church to connect with.

This young adult ministry is what you bring to it. We’re glad you’re here and can’t wait to gather together. 

* Gather Thousand Oaks is committed to being an inclusive, affirming, and accessible community that actively challenges racism, ableism, homophobia, and discrimination in all forms. We welcome and celebrate people of all backgrounds and identities, ensuring everyone has the opportunity to participate fully, grow in faith, and serve in leadership. You are welcome here exactly as you are.
