About Us
Our Beliefs
Ancient Streams seeks to create opportunities for believers to meet with God, alone and in community, in order to deepen their relationships with God, grow and live out their callings in life. Following in the steps of a “rich inheritance of saints” throughout scripture and history, Ancient Streams seeks to encourage teachings and practices that strengthen our love of God, faith in Him, and walk with Him and others.
Groups and Gatherings
Formation Groups
Twice-a-month evening meeting for those who want to continue sharing in contemplative practices in a group context. These evenings focus on Christian meditation and contemplative prayer.
Retreats
Retreat is about paying attention to the soul’s thirst for connection with the living God. As a community we honor this fundamental longing in the soul for time alone with God by offering a rhythm of retreats throughout the year: Fall, Advent, Lent, and Spring.
Spiritual Direction
A spiritual director is one such companion who helps you pay attention to and respond to the presence of God in your life. This deep, compassionate care for another is at the heart of spiritual direction. Find out more.
