Description

Church: Blue Ocean Church Ann Arbor

Location: Ann Arbor, MI

Website: a2blue.org

Denomination: TFAM (The Fellowship of Affirming Ministries)

Description: We are a thriving, LGBTQ-affirming, nondenominational church that was planted over a decade ago in Ann Arbor, MI. Weekly attendance is about 150, including approximately 40 kids between preschool and fifth grade. We share a building with an Episcopal Church and a Reform Jewish Synagogue and have an additional 30-55 computers that join us live on Sunday mornings via Zoom; we’ve integrated the online and in-person congregations and host an annual “Zoomie weekend” where online congregants meet in Ann Arbor to worship with the local church. We are excited to find an associate pastor who can help tend the life of this growing community.
