Seven questionsWyspa Odnowa · Nowa Sól
The things people are afraid to ask
- a
Will anyone make me speak in front of everyone?
No. Whoever is leading does not call visitors out or ask for introductions. The back rows are usually free.
- b
Do I have to give money?
No. The offering is voluntary. Nobody watches who gives what.
- c
I do not believe. Can I come?
Yes. Quite a few people here started exactly there. What you believe is your own business, and we treat it that way.
- d
I have been through hard things. Is this place for me?
Yes. Especially for you. Most of us came here carrying something. You do not have to talk about it until you want to.
- e
Can I leave halfway through?
At any moment and without explaining. The doors are at the back.
- f
What should I wear?
Whatever you wear on a normal day. Jeans and a hoodie are completely fine.
- g
I will come alone. Will it be awkward?
Most people come alone the first time. The room is not big, but not small enough for anyone to stare.
From a distanceYouTube · @wyspaodnowa
If you would rather watch from a distance first
We stream our services live and the recordings stay on our channel. You can watch a whole service at home, on headphones, at any hour. You can also watch and not come. That is fine too.
