Start a Web Fellowship Church

---

Many people feel it—

a quiet disconnection from nature, from each other, and from something deeper.

We have become distant from the living world,
and in that distance, something essential has been lost.

A nature-based spiritual tradition rooted in the living Earth.

It is not built on belief alone,
but on lived experience:

• gathering in real community 
• walking the land 
• tending soil and growing food 
• sharing meals, stories, and presence 

This is not something abstract.

It is something you can live—and something you can begin.

 The Holy Spring is one expression of this path.

But it is not the only one.

Through the Web Fellowship, we are growing a decentralized network of communities—each unique, yet rooted in the same spirit of connection, reverence, and shared experience.

You do not need permission to begin.

If you feel called to gather people,
to reconnect with the Earth,
to create something real—

you can start a Web Fellowship church where you are.

 We’ve created a guide for those who feel this call.

A practical, grounded manual to help you:

• start a gathering with just a few people 
• create meaningful, repeatable rituals 
• build real connection through shared experience 
• grow something that can last beyond yourself 

You do not need land.
You do not need money.
You do not need to have everything figured out.

You only need a willingness to begin.

Each community takes its own form,

but all share a common foundation:

• a commitment to nature-based gathering 
• a focus on real human connection 
• openness to spiritual experience 
• a respect for the living Earth 

For some, sacred practice may include the use of sacrament—
always approached with reverence, responsibility, and intention.

It is never a commodity.
It is never for sale.

It is a sacred element of practice, freely given and deeply respected.  Remember We are in this together.  You can read about our Shared Future Here

 This path is for those who feel called to:

• bring people together in a meaningful way 
• reconnect with nature and the living world 
• build community rooted in honesty and presence 
• create something real—not just talk about it 

You do not need to be an expert.
You do not need a title.

If this resonates, you are ready.

 If you feel called to begin a local fellowship, we invite you to take the next step through 

The Way of the Web.

There you can receive the free starter guide:

Start a Way of the Web Fellowship
A high-level checklist for forming a local Earth-honoring spiritual community.

This guide will help you think through:

• your fellowship’s purpose and identity 
• the kind of gathering you want to create 
• basic structure, values, and responsibilities 
• first steps for growing slowly and sincerely 
• whether the Fellowship Launch Package is right for you 

The guide is offered through The Way of the Web, the fellowship path connected to this work.

The free guide is a simple starting point.

For those who feel ready for more structure and support, The Way of the Web also offers a Fellowship Launch Package for individuals or small groups who want help beginning with clarity, responsibility, and direction.

The Fellowship Launch Package is designed for those who are ready to move beyond interest and begin forming something real in their own community.

It may include orientation materials, suggested first steps, sample fellowship structure, and next-step support.

Those who are interested can begin by completing the request form through The Way of the Web.

If you feel a genuine call to begin,
you are welcome to reach out.

By starting a community, you become part of a growing network—
others walking the same path,
each bringing the Web to life in their own place.

We are building this together.  For further reading see our post on building community

You do not need to wait for the right moment.

Start small.
