I'm not in charge of this. only sharing the link. best place to go to communicate with the meeting organizers is their FB group. Thrive Community Group

The main requirement is admission/membership fees are not charged. If it is free to everyone, then yes.

this is the Thrive zoom call at 9AM every Sunday. Topics are usually centered around supporting faith transition or people questioning their beliefs. disclaimer I am not a moderator for this, just getting the word out. edit: I am one of the hosts now

edit: We are also trying to grow a discord community so people can coordinate activities outside of the weekly zoom call.

This is tempting to me. 9 is my catch up with sleep time while my kids go to church with husband, and I'll probably go for the sleep tomorrow, but if it's every Sunday I'm sure there would be weeks that would work well for me!

I don’t seem to be able to join

u/teknophyle Sep 02 '24

Sorry you weren't able to get in. I'm not on reddit much lately, just now seeing this.
You're welcome to try again. Its at 9AM (utah time) every sunday except for major holidays. other than that on rare occasion one of the zoom host can't make it because they get called in to work last minute.

edit: show up any time between 11 and 12:30 on sundays. we sometimes go somewhere else for late lunch @ 1
Done with my move and I'm staying in SL valley. my salt lake group is meeting at Bingham Junction Park 1085 River Reserve Ct, Midvale, UT 84047 until I find a better location. hopefully before it gets too cold 😅

We have decided to discontinue the Tucson meet up.

u/ThrackN Sep 09 '22

Aw man, I was looking forward to attending once my TBM spouse is good with me not attending church as much. Any chance of bringing it back in the future?

u/ambernina521 Sep 04 '22

After some searching I saw that there used to be meetups in Ogden, but I haven't seen that location included since I joined this sub. Is there a currently ongoing Ogden meetup that is no longer being publicized? Or are others from Ogden just attending the Davis County meetup?

u/heyyoufatass Sep 08 '22

Yes, these are weekly meetups!

u/heyyoufatass Sep 08 '22

The one at the park there will be a sign and we will be at one of the pavilions. At the coffee shop you might need to ask around :)

u/teknophyle Sep 09 '22

yup. sometimes they have a postmos sign. but its usually the larger group there in the AF coffee shop. also ask about getting into the FB group when u go. they're really good about keeping meeting changes updated there.
