House Church Profile: Oreland

While September nudges beach gear back in the closet and the kids off to school, it's also the kick-off month for Storehouse-goers to return (or start going) to a house church.

Several new house churches are in effect this year, including the Oreland House Church led by Luke and Erin Amann and Art and Kathy Caruso.

The Amanns are no strangers to Storehouse; Luke has often served on the Operations Team and Erin has added her beautiful voice to the Worship Team on many occasions. The pair will now serve together as co-leaders of the Oreland House Church, and they will soon be joined by their first child, due this fall.

The Carusos have been members of Storehouse since 2004, and you can often spot them with their two young boys, Nicholas and Matthew. In addition to Art being a Leadership Council member and Kathy planning events with the Family Ministry, they will now also open their home to host Oreland House Church. Maya, their affectionate Border Collie, will welcome you too. On-site childcare will be provided.

House churches are often called the heart of Storehouse Church, and they allow attendants to grow closer in community as they spend time in worship and prayer. To see which one you'd like to join, go to http://storehousechurch.com/?grow=house_churches.
