Are there any independent house churchers here?

Just trying to keep an up to date tally of how many independent, apostolic house churchers are here? I mean, you are actually part of a fellowship (2 or 3 at least) baptised, Holy Ghost filled believers who meet regularly as a local 'house church' assembly or congregation or fellowship? (You all know what I mean! lol)

(If you are not currently meeting with anyone, speak up and say so - assuming you would like to meet with other brethren - and maybe some of you might discover some others are near by....?)

BTW, the eojc.net website appears to be defunct, and the folks associated with that site seem to have dropped out of public (internet anyway) view.

The Glorious Church website seems not to have been updated in quite awhile, at least as far as any discussions or networking going on.

I am not currently meeting with anyone. Not sure I'd attend an apostolic house church.

The only thing close to a house church that I know of are the many church plants (reformed) that meet midweek at a houses in several neighborhoods, while having Sunday services at a building.

Or are you going backwards into Presbyterianism?

We met in my pastors house for 30 years. He died last year and I became the pastor. We still met in his (his wife's / my aunt's) house for a year. I just bought a 20x40 tent and we've met in it for a month now. In my area it's by far easier to get people to come to a tent then a house.

Are y'all trying to eventually get a building?

I do want to get a building. I looked all summer for a building to rent. I didn't like anything that's currently available and the tent felt right. I'll look again in a few months.
