(Our story · our heart · how to be a part)
Next.
(Who it’s for)
Anyone
who’s curious.
You don’t need to have been here long, and you don’t need to know what you want out of it. Some people come to Next having just started showing up. Some have been around for years. Coming doesn’t commit you to anything.
Membership is one way to be a part of New Culture, and Next is where you’d learn what that involves. It isn’t the only way. Contributors and committed attenders are part of this too, and the class covers all of it.
