Emerge Workout & Worship is a faith-based fitness experience combining movement, Scripture, reflection, worship, and community.
Join us locally at Under The Horizon in Gettysburg, PA, most Mondays from 6–7 PM, or participate from home with our downloadable weekly workouts shared through the private Emerge Workout & Worship Facebook group.
Each week focuses on a different God-centered healthy lifestyle theme, helping us quiet the noise of the wellness world, renew our minds, and learn what it means to care for our bodies with God at the center.
All fitness levels are welcome. No RSVP is needed. Come as you are, move at your own pace, and attend as your schedule allows. Most gatherings are held outdoors, so dress appropriately, wear comfortable shoes, and bring water. We recommend arriving about 10 minutes early so we can begin promptly at 6 PM.
Children are welcome and should remain with their parent during the gathering.
Both in-person gatherings and downloadable workouts are offered by donation.
For current dates, weather changes, and event information, follow The Bodybuilding Potter on Facebook and join the private Emerge Workout & Worship Facebook group.
Stewarding the body. Anchored in faith. Reflecting His glory.
