Who We Are

Perhaps the only thing we really have control over in our lives is our attention--where we choose to focus the consciousness, our Light, that runs through each of us individually and collectively. And This Little Light Of Ours only exists right now.

Right Now, in its endless and everlasting forms, is what we celebrate and praise at Midnight Church. Through playful creation with child-like spirits, we allow Present Moment to flow through us and unfold before us all.

We gather at midnight not to be irreverent, but to be awake. Midnight is the hour when masks loosen, certainty softens, and we are most honest with ourselves. It is a threshold hour—between days, between roles, between who we were and who we might become. This is where improv lives best. 

At its core, Midnight Church is not satire pretending to be sacred. It is sincerity disguised as comedy. We believe improv is a spiritual practice—not because it is holy, but because it requires the same things life requires; listening, courage, trust, commitment, and devotion.

At every service, we invite the congregation to offer confessions: sometimes silly, sometimes tender, sometimes carrying the weight of real shame. Those offerings aren’t judged or corrected. They’re received. And through our improv, they’re transformed—showered with joy, grace, laughter, and care. What begins as something hidden becomes something shared.

This is communion—not in doctrine or dogma, but in experience and fellowship.

For a brief time, we sit in this fellowship—ministers and congregants alike—witnessing one another in real time, creating something that didn’t exist moments before.

If you leave laughing, praise be.

If you leave feeling strangely lighter, even better.

And if you leave a little more awake to the Present Moment--then our improvised midnight service worked.

I, along with Sister of The Abyss, Kristen Drenning; and our entire ministerial staff hope to see you all the night of February 7th for our First Service.

Good Midnight to you,

Midnight Pastor Josh 💦
