We are a small group of people from a variety of backgrounds, and most of us have struggled in some way with religious faith. Some of us have left it completely, some are dealing with big questions and doubts, and some never were religious but have family members or friends who are. We gather to share our stories and help each other by offering insights and encouragement. The group's intention isn't to de-convert people from their faith, but to help them navigate their own religious and spiritual paths, wherever that may lead. We meet in a small room at the back of the cafe, and we ask that you purchase a beverage or food while at the cafe.
