Meet our Leaders- Chris Cribari
We want you to get to know every one of the leaders and what brought them to plant within Reunion. In this week's Newsletter, we wanted to introduce you to Chris Cribari, who handles our outreach ministries and is a teaching pastor with us. Below is his story of how he came to be part of the Reunion Church team.

Chris' Story-
When did Reunion Church begin? Well with the idea of two of our pastors: Andrew and David. Back when frost-tipped hair was still in style. They envisioned a new way of doing church that prioritized people over places and programs. Now that's a story for them to tell as far as where we started, but I can share where I joined their team.
Walk with me for a minute. It’s about mid-December 2016. I’d just dropped out of the Colorado Film School and was also leaving my family’s home church after being there for nearly 10 years. Aimless doesn’t begin to define where I was emotionally at that point. A man, but no mission. No direction as I also began my deconstruction of faith. 
I’m sitting in the far back end of the parking lot in my car after attending my last service as a member of this church. It’s a brisk Wednesday night in Colorado and I just sit there reflecting on the change of things. Then my phone rings and it’s Andrew.
He’s in a panic and driving. Don’t know why yet, but the tone of voice he had set us up for a vulnerable conversation. He had just been excommunicated from his church and stripped of his role as a youth pastor.
Now the conversation we had will stay between us because not all intimate moments need to be internet-made. One thing I will share was his ask of me. To join him in creating this new type of church. In the midst of the chaos of that night, he still had this vision and believed now it was time to turn a divine call into action.
Fast forward 5 years later and now the faithful actions of a few are blossoming into the firm foundation of Reunion Church. A group of rag-tag displaced believers looking to guide people home has transformed into a local movement of many who have responded to the call from God. A community that is on a mission to redeem, restore, and reunite all people to God.


PODCAST: Recaps and Interviews
In light of that mission, we've started a brand new podcast called the Reunion Church Podcast that will be available on all major platforms soon! Every Wednesday expect to see our Sunday Recaps where Andrew and Chris break down some key points from the previous message at church. You can currently find these podcasts on Facebook, Instagram, and Youtube which are included on the links below.
Also by the end of the summer, Chris will be doing interviews of guests throughout Colorado every Saturday. The goal is to let people know the heartbeat and faith of everyday people, religious/none religious, to encourage some thought-provoking conversations around the Colorado culture and current events. If you have anyone of interest or want to be interviewed, email us and we'll add you to the schedule to hear that story.
Timeline: Full Service January 2021
That's right, that's the plan. us to go to open to the Reunion public with a full church service in January 2021. We have a few things in place to lead up to that, but one way we can use help is financial support. small donations now are going to our launch service now, and we would love any support you can give. you can donate on our website through the link below.
What You Can Be Praying For
  1. The Morrisons, Chris Cribari, and Daniel Walton are all in the process of trying to move directly into the Reunion area. It's VERY competitive and pricey. Please pray they can land a place ASAP they can call home in the Reunion community.
  2. Justin and Raine (two leaders in the church, their story comes next week) just found out they are pregnant with their first! please pray for them as they prepare to start their family and their baby grows healthy. 
  3. Bethany's Grandpa passed away this week. Pray for her and her family as they are in the process of grieving.
  4. There are several new friends attending the discipleship group through the Ordinary Life. Pray for commitment for them, wisdom for the Leadership, and again for the team to grow.
To redeem, restore, and reunite all people to God
