Who We Are
Spring Forth is a "church of house churches." Like the early church, we share communion, meals, spiritual gifts, prayer, Scripture, and a common mission in and through house churches, overseen by devoted shepherds. Also like the early church, we gather in larger meetings for worship, instruction, and ministry.

Our Story
Growing Toward House Churches
Spring Forth Church is a Word and Spirit church in Dayton, Ohio. Since 2021, we've been growing toward being a church of house churches. We have two primary expressions: a larger corporate gathering in downtown Dayton and home gatherings across the city for a more intimate, relational model. We alternate between these expressions every other week.
