The Gospel Project
An exploration of the Sacred through theatre ministry.
A bold new gathering where theatre and ministry meet to bring good news, speak truth, build community, and make space for the sacred in fresh new ways. Supported by a grant from the Southern California Nevada Conference, this monthly worship experience launches in 2026 and weaves together story, music, movement, testimony, scripture, and sacrament into a new and transformative relation to faith. This isn’t theatre replacing church; it’s theatre serving the Gospel, helping us become the community we keep praying to be.
On the last Saturday of each month, we’ll begin at a shared communion table extend into a free community meal, and move from there into the worship experience.
Queer Bodies & Sacred Texts:
From Makeup to Mystery
The Gospel Project launches with its pilot gathering on January 31st with an embodied, artistic, and inclusive worship experience rooted in community and truth-seeking. Acting, music, dance, and spoken testimony combine and invite us to come as our truest selves into community before God. Featuring worship with the Reverend James Fouther, an experience of movement by the Fuse Dance Company, song and spoken word by guest artists Oscar Aguilar and Salem Strikes, a staged scene from the play Rotterdam that explores the authentic transgender experience, a testimonial by Johnny Eberhardt as drag queen Cucu Chanel, and a powerful yet challenging preaching message by our own Pastor Craig Tyrl, the evening weaves multiple artistic voices into a shared sacred encounter. This is not a performance to watch, but a community to join, listening for what our God yet speaks, and shaping Creation through faithful, affirming worship.
