Testimonials from Thrive at the Y
“I came unsure of what to expect as far as teaching and meeting new people. But my expectations were exceeded. Everyone has been super friendly. I’ve made new connections; it’s been extremely encouraging meeting singles of all ages in different life phases.”
“I came back after attending once, 20 years ago. I wasn’t sure how I would feel after going through a very painful marriage. God far-out exceeded anything I imagined. I ended up with the perfect roommates who were supportive & loving. I spread my wings and made friends with all kinds of people in different situations but showing the same bond – Jesus Christ and I didn’t feel left out or judged.”
“The worship times were wonderful, the food was great, but the saturation in the Word and the presence of God in all areas was exactly what I needed!”
“Had a very blessed experience. Enjoyed the variety of ages and mix of people, great workshops and speaker. Worship band was amazing…great songs and beautiful music. Really had a great time and happy it was lighthearted instead of heavy while still being extremely helpful to grow in my walk!”
