Creekside Outside Logo white

We are called by God to community and fellowship together (Acts 2:42). Creekside Outside is a hub designed to connect individuals who share a passion for the outdoors.  You'll find events that suit your level of adventure and risk and meet new friends who share your interests – outside. Activities range from mild to wild, are always informal and fun, and led by volunteers who love God's creation. For more information, see event descriptions as they become available or contact Quinton Miller at outside@creeksideeg.com.

We'll be in the Creekside Atrium the first Sunday of each month. Stop to ask questions and get more information.
