About Gather

Gather connects churches with the space they need

Gather is a platform that connects churches, ministries and Christian organisations with the space they need to gather.

A place where churches can find all the space they need, from Sunday services and prayer meetings to small groups, training and events.

Our story

Space for the growing church

The church is growing and will continue to grow. That requires a solution to today's and tomorrow's space challenges.

Existing spaces must become more visible and better utilized. Collaboration must increase. And additional space is needed to support continued growth.

Space should never be a barrier to growth.

We're building a network of spaces designed around the rhythm of Christian community life, making it easier to find, use, and share space.

Gather was born in prayer in 2024 and launched in April 2026 by Jade and Nicolas Griffioen, out of a desire to serve the church in the city.

Our vision

The church is growing. We are building to facilitate that growth.

We believe God wants to make space for the church of today, and for the church of the future.

For all the gatherings yet to come. For everything that is still to be built.

In the city, space is becoming increasingly scarce. This calls for a different way of looking at space.

Space already exists, but needs to be better connected, shared and used, alongside new forms of space.

What we're building toward

Five pillars

01

Space in many forms

Every church has different needs. From Sunday services to prayer, small groups, training, or recordings. Space must be flexible and fit the rhythm of Christian community life.

02

Together we lack nothing

We believe there doesn't have to be a shortage. When we collaborate and share spaces, abundance emerges.

03

The church visible in the city

The church belongs in the heart of the city. Where people are, where needs exist, and where impact is needed.

04

Building on social impact

Churches already contribute to community, care, and meaning. We want to build further on that proven social return.

05

Pay it forward

Larger, established churches help younger initiatives grow by sharing space and opportunities.

Build with us

Gather is more than a platform

We're building a network of churches, organizations, space providers, and partners. A network that believes in the power of gathering and in the church's role in the city.
