It's time for a better story.  

The kind of story that has room for everyone and where every voice is heard. Around the kitchen table with close friends, Collective was imagined by stripping away all the assumptions about what Church needs to be and rebuilding around shared meals, honest conversations, and the belief that together is better.

We are a community from around the greater Milwaukee area who want to be part of writing a better more loving and inclusive story for our community and world.

Easter is tomorrow! April 21st! We have a small sunrise service at the top of the hill at Retzer Nature Center. Sunrise is at 6:01 AM that day, so we recommend getting there around 5:40AM to have enough time. - There will also be a brunch gathering at the Barrett house at 9 AM. You don't have to come to the sunrise service to come hang out, eat, and connect! Please note that there will not be a "church service" portion of this event, it's just brunch.

House Church @ Klemowits'

Church is about being connected with other humans who care about you and your story.  That's is what our weekly house church meetings are about. At House Church, we pray + immerse ourselves in the Biblical story together. We always share about life and eat together. Expect to talk and laugh and grow together.

At House Church, sometimes we sing. Usually we pray and immerse ourselves in the Biblical story together. We always share about our life and eat brunch together. While we talk, and laugh, and grow together, our lives are becoming interconnected and beautiful.

House Church is about stripping away the program and flash to rediscover Church as shared meals, honest conversations, and being together. Expect to talk, laugh, and cry together. It's open to anyone who wants to come. Often first-time visitors are surprised by how quickly they are drawn in and engaged.

4TH MONDAY MEALS - GUEST HOUSE OF MILWAUKEE

CollectiveMKE helps feed the men on Guest House of Milwaukee on the fourth Monday of every month.  This endeavor requires donations of food and money, volunteers that are willing to help prepare the food to take to the shelter and volunteers to serve the meal on the actual day. They have a brand new industrial kitchen that makes serving easy and fun!
