The Gathering Church

About this church

The Gathering is an evangelical Christian church in Idaho Falls, Idaho, affiliated with Calvary Chapel. Sunday gatherings begin at 10:30 a.m. at the Westbank Convention Center, 525 River Parkway. The service includes worship, Bible teaching, and prayer, and usually lasts about 90 minutes, with an invitation to stay afterward for fellowship. Music is contemporary Christian, played with acoustic guitar, keyboard, bass, percussion, and several vocalists, at a volume described as not too loud. Dress is casual, from jeans and t-shirts to sandals.

Kids Gathering offers age-appropriate classrooms with a secure check-in and check-out system, using name tags for children and guardian tags for pickup. Parents can drop children off up to 15 minutes before service, or children can sit with their families in the sanctuary. Children's ministry staff are vetted and background checked, and the curriculum is grounded in a biblical worldview. The website also offers a connect card, a prayer request form, serving opportunities, an events calendar, and a benevolence page. The Sunday page answers common first-visit questions. Confirm times on the website.
