Come with Compassion

Everyone is welcome here.
But know this:
This is a space built by and for neurodivergent, LGBTQ+, and curious spiritual seekers—those often left out of traditional faith communities.

When you enter, you’re a guest in a house that centers affirmation, accessibility, and authenticity.
If you cannot honor that, this is not the space for you.

We will not tolerate hate, exclusion, or harm.
This is sacred ground for healing, questioning, and becoming.

 

Come with compassion.

The Collage began in early 2025 with two gatherings and a whole lot of imagination—and we’ve been growing ever since.

We registered as an LLC with the state of Georgia on July 4, 2025, in response to legislation that proved how urgently spaces like this are needed.

 

We’re proud to be in partnership with 1001 New Worshiping Communities (an initiative of the PCUSA)

SpicyChurch is a 501c3
