THRIVE Cape Cod is a partnership between Cape Cod's gospel-centered churches and Vision New England, formed to develop a spirit of unity and collaboration among participating churches. We gather each year for a weekend of worship, fellowship, learning, and growth.
At THRIVE you can gather new ideas while collaborating with and being inspired by passionate people, and join fellow Christians for worship, keynote speakers, and breakout sessions focused on helping the Cape's churches thrive and bless their communities!
