Looking at the Thirst Changes

In recent weeks, some big changes have been happening at Thirst. We reassessed what Thirst was always meant to be and who we were envisioning our audience being and then looked at what we could better do meet our vision and serve those that come through the doors on Friday nights.

OUR VISION:
Our vision for Friday nights has always been to build christian community. To provide a non threatening live music, coffee house venue where people can come visit, share life, and love on one another. In order to meet that vision we have a coffee shack that's open the duration of Thirst, from 6:00-10:00pm. We have live bands that come in, some weeks more for entertainment purposes, some weeks providing more of a worship night. NEW THIS WEEK, we're going to start making a full, warm meal available for the low, cover our costs, suggested donation of $2/plate. Meal will be available at 6:00pm with most bands beginning at 6:30pm so even on worship nights, there is a full 30 minutes of just hang out time built in.

OUR AUDIENCE:
We're all about families at RiverView! One of the biggest hindrances to families on Friday night was our inability to offer childcare. A few teens have stepped up and offered to provide babysitting for children on Friday evenings from 6:30-8:30. They do charge $2 per child, which goes directly to the teens providing the care. Making dinner available was another way to try to better serve families as we know it can be hectic getting home from work, trying to feed your family, and get out the door. So, we cut out the feed your family step-no prep work, cooking, or dishes. We're just inviting families to come and have a fun, relaxing, family meal at Thirst.

OUR SCHEDULE:
Friday Nights:
6:00pm - Warm Dinner Available for $2/plate
                Coffee Shack Opens
6:30pm - Live Band Takes the Stage
               Babysitting made available inside the two church classrooms for $2/child
8:30pm - Babysitting closes
