events
Vessel aims to provide young adults with various activities to cultivate friendship, faith, and community. Our events include service projects, bible studies, service projects, sports, social gatherings, and more! Stay current on our upcoming events by viewing our calendar. Copy events to your own calendar as a reminder!
BIBLE STUDY
Vessel exists to connect young adults to real relationships with God and others by gathering together through worship, learning, and experiencing community in small groups. Our group converges for bible study at local locations every Tuesday evening. please contact us to find out where the next study group will be held!
community service
Vessel staff desires to be the head, heart, and hands of Christ. If we aren't serving the less fortunate or even our sisters and brothers next door, then how much are we really growing in our Christian walks? Vessel seeks to take on a handful of community projects every year in the North GA and Western NC areas.
Check out our blog to read about each service project.

social activities
In addition to our church events and community service, Vessel also enjoys group athletics and other fun activities . We host outdoor volleyball every Sunday afternoon during warmer weather. We also team up with local young adults to play Ultimate Frisbee on Saturday evenings.
If you're interested in joining, please contact us to learn more about times and locations.
VOLLEYBALL
When the weather and temperature are right, the group loves to gather together after church and lunch to play volleyball. This is usually out in Hayesville, NC. We have been coming together for fellowship and good food for a few years now and look to continue the tradition as long as the Lord provides. We usually play from 3 PM until dusk, and everyone helps provide drinks and ingredients for a day of exercise and dinner provided by the Serra family.
ULTIMATE FRISBEE
This ministry has been going on for over 10 years and is hosted by Noah Kough, with others like Doug Serra assisting him. All ages are welcome as we join together in one of several locations in Blairsville, GA, from 6-8 PM on Saturdays, starting the first weekend of April and ending around the end of October. Several games are played alongside a half-time devotion.
OTHER
In addition, come visit Vessel Roundtable, a group event hosted at different homes, in which we discuss current events, theology and politics in a safe space. We also plan hiking trips, camping events, girls or guys days, gaming nights, trips to Asheville or Chattanooga, and more!
unite
Unite is an event specifically designed to gather and empower young adults from all over our local area through community, worship and teaching. Our hope is that everyone that comes, no matter your church affiliation or background. We love for each person to take what God has given you and share it with those back at your home church and in your community to make a true difference in lives of the people that God has placed around you.
