The Well?

This past weekend I went to a church in downtown Boulder called "The Well."

It's main focus is creating a community, so the mass usually isn't started until everyone is done chatting in the main lobby area and makes their way into the actual area where mass is held. This being my first time, I had no idea what was going on and I was extremely reluctant to talk to anyone, so I just went in a played on my phone until around 11:09, when the mass finally began.

The service had a huge focus on music, similar to a lot of churches, and I actually highly enjoyed the message and stayed afterwards to talk with some different people.

The Well is relatively new and also relatively underfunded, thus their masses are held in a middle school auditorium with all of the necessary equipment loaded and unloaded from the back of a U-Haul truck before and after the service. It was really interesting to see that despite their lack of resources and capital, they didn't ask for much, and they still only had one goal in mind, which is to serve God.

Maybe it's worth checking out in the future for any of you guys.
