home church
Residential faith gathering
Home church is a small Christian congregation that meets in a private residence rather than a dedicated church building.
The practice emphasizes informal worship, close community, and a return to early Christian traditions of gathering in homes.
Some home churches operate independently, while others are part of larger networks or denominations: They've been part of a home church for years.
