Join us for a time of quiet reflection and spiritual renewal as we practice various forms of contemplative prayer together so that we may be ‘rooted and established in love’ (Ephesians 3:17). We will pray from 5p-6p and then have snacks and fellowship from 6p-7p

What is Alpha? Alpha is a series of conversations about things we all question in life: Why do bad things happen to good people? What's the purpose of life? What's next? If you're looking for a judgment-free space to ask hard questions and share your own opinion, there's a place for you. Connection Connecting with others is what we were made for. All sessions start with a time to connect and build friendships, eliminating awkwardness and creating space for important conversations. Content Alpha’s content explores the big questions we all ask, and guests from any background can unpack the basics of Christian faith. Bring your questions, you’ll find you’re not alone. Conversation Those who attend Alpha share that their group discussions are hands-down the best part of the experience. No questions are off limits and there’s nothing you can’t say (really).
Join Kathy Maskell and Cheryl Feinstein to study and pray through Sunday’s Scripture for East Denver Vineyard. We will NOT meet on the 5th Wednesdays of the month.
Freshen up your closets and drawers! Join us for a Spring Swap on Saturday May 16th at Bellwether House. Bring any number of items (from zero to twenty) ready for a new home: accessories, clothing, home goods, kids clothing. Think of items that make you go “hm there's nothing wrong with this but I just never use/wear it ... ” We'll socialize, browse, and relax together. Bring along a friend or neighbor too!
No Worship Service on May 17 — Let’s Serve Instead! On Sunday, May 17, we’re hitting pause on our usual 9am service to serve our city instead. The Colfax Marathon runs right past where we meet, and the route closes all nearby roads that morning—so we’re turning it into an EDV Serves opportunity! Join us as we hand out water and cheer on the runners with fun, energy, and encouragement. It’s a great way to be present in our neighborhood and show some love. Sign up for a volunteer shift between 8am–1pm by registering. Meet up at Colfax Marathon water station #12, at 17th and Clarkson. Plan for an extra 15 minutes to find parking and walk over. Ages 8+ can volunteer and we will have volunteer shirts for you to wear!
Join us Sunday, May 17 (Ascension Sunday!) from 6-8 at Bellwether House for a potluck meal, meditation on scripture, and a time of worship. We'll be serving at the Colfax marathon in the morning, but in the evening we'll gather for a time to enjoy one another and the presence of Jesus, even as we celebrate his ascension to be with the Father. No childcare, but children welcome.
We would love the opportunity to baptize you on May 24th during our Sunday service. Baptism is a beautiful picture of our spiritual transformation in Christ: we go under the water, symbolizing dying to our old self, and come up out of the water as a symbol of being raised to new life in Christ. If you're interested in being baptized, please register and our pastor Kathy or a leader will be in touch to talk with you more.

Join us this term to read a contemporary book Against the Machine: The Unmaking of Humanity by Paul Kingsnorth. We will meet monthly on the 4th Wednesday to discuss a few chapters at a time, working our way slowly through the book between January and May. Together with Kingsnorth, we will think about what it means to live in our time and be shaped by presence within our technological systems and economies. All are welcome and should feel free to bring any friends brave enough to think about the challenge of becoming human in our time. You can purchase the book here: https://bookshop.org/p/books/against-the-machine-on-the-unmaking-of-humanity-paul-kingsnorth/1fd1b2b275afb40f?ean=9780593850633&next=t&next=t&affiliate=2186&prhc=PRHEFFDF5A7F1. At this point, there is only one version, so we will all have the same pagination! Hurray! For a fun introduction to who Paul Kingsnorth is, read his adult conversion story: https://firstthings.com/the-cross-and-the-machine/ ( https://firstthings.com/the-cross-and-the-machine/%C2%A0 ); You can also check out these podcasts to hear more about his work: Interesting Times with Ross Douthat: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s5wdJqJ708U
Join us for a hands-on chance to serve our neighbors in need alongside Pastor Bruce of Church in the City and Bring Them In Ministries. From 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM, Pastor Bruce will lead us at CITC in preparing the meal — a great opportunity for the whole family to work together in the kitchen. We'll need 5-10 people to help with this! From 12:00 – 1:30 PM, people ages 13 and up can stay to serve lunch on-site at the Salvation Army Crossroads Center. We need 5 folks to help with this! This is a simple, tangible way to live out what Jesus calls us to — "whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me" (Matthew 25:40).
Are you new to East Denver Vineyard or looking for ways to get more connected? Join us for our Newcomers Brunch—a relaxed time to share a meal, hear a bit about our story and meet others who are discovering life at EDV. Whether you’ve visited once or have been coming for a while, this is the perfect next step to learn how to belong and grow with us. Gather directly after service on May 31st and walk together with Kathy to her home, Pilgrim Way, two blocks from service.
June 18-20 we’re heading to Blue Mesa, Elk Creek Campground for an early summer camping adventure, 4 hours from Denver. It’s family-friendly, dog-friendly, and full of reservoir activities—think paddleboarding, swimming, and fishing.

Space is limited (4 sites, 32 spots), so register to save your spot now!
