A beautiful way to worship

All Places Together is a beautiful way to worship in a world where it’s not always safe or possible to worship in a brick and mortar building. Pastor Colleen is truly passionate about reaching everyone where they are, be that geographically or spiritually, and it shows.

“Take a deep breathe”

All Places Together brings new voices and ideas to my weekly Sunday routine. I love taking a deep breathe every week with Colleen and her guests as we center on faith, God in our life, and topics that inspire me to learn more. For instance, the podcast on abolition has made me think about how I can adopt that mindset of being an abolitionist in my own vocation and community.
