Who we are

Growing in His Glory

Today, KAVOD has grown far beyond what we could have imagined. What began as one small group has flourished into six dynamic ministries across multiple locations, now reaching an estimated 180 people each week throughout the Grand Rapids area.

But our heart remains the same: to create authentic spaces where people can encounter the KAVOD—the weighty, transformative glory of God—in community with others.

Why KAVOD?

KAVOD is the Hebrew word for "glory"—not just brightness or beauty, but the substantial, life-changing presence of God that transforms everything it touches. That's our prayer for everyone who walks through our doors: that they would encounter God's glory in a way that changes everything.

Ready to experience KAVOD for yourself? We'd love to welcome you into our community.
