A Place at the Table for Everyone

The Well is a network of young adult Bible studies on the Treasure Coast where people can find living water in Jesus Christ. We create space for honest questions, deep conversations, and real relationships that lead to lasting discipleship.

Our heart is to welcome those who feel forgotten, rejected, or hurt by the Church and show them that they still have a place in the family of God.

"We believe the Church is wherever Jesus is and wherever His people gather in His name: a sanctuary, a bar, a restaurant, or a coffee shop."

Living Water

Rooted in Scripture, open to questions, centered on Jesus.

Real Community

Honest relationships around a shared table, wherever that may be.

Lasting Discipleship

Making disciples of all nations, beginning right here on the Treasure Coast.

How The Well Began

2025

The First Gathering

In October 2025, Pastor Eric Nelson and Worship Leader Mike Faurot sensed a clear burden to reach young adults who had been overlooked, rejected, or wounded by the Church. The first gathering started small, with three people meeting in a Mexican restaurant in the Stuart area.

Over time that simple gathering grew into a micro church that now meets at Dirty South Bar in Downtown Stuart, creating a welcoming environment for young adults who might never walk into a traditional church building.

2026

A Growing Network

In early 2026, Pastor Eric again felt led to plant another Bible study in a different location as he saw the hunger in Generation Z for sound doctrine, deep community, and meaningful discipleship around a shared table.

The Well exists to meet that hunger with clear teaching from Scripture and a culture of grace and hospitality. A new Well is currently in the process of being planted in Port Saint Lucie, FL, as the network continues to grow across the Treasure Coast.

The Well operates as a network of Bible studies called Wells under the spiritual covering of our sending church, Faith Family Worship Center in Palm City.

A Welcoming Table,
Not a Religious Performance

Each Well is designed to feel like a shared table of community. You can expect to open the Bible, ask questions, talk through real issues, sing and pray, and build relationships with other like minded people.

Open the Bible

Teaching rooted in Scripture with room for real questions and honest discussion.

Real Conversation

A culture of love and forgiveness where no question is too hard and every story matters.

Live Worship

Live or acoustic worship led by Mike and others, honest, reverent, and accessible.

Food & Community

Usually coffee or food. Real people. A place to belong, believe, and become who God called you to be.

Join Us

Our goal is to see disciples made in every public place on the Treasure Coast that will allow us to gather, whether that is a bar in Downtown Stuart, a local coffee shop, or another neighborhood venue.

As more Wells are planted, our prayer is that young adults across the Treasure Coast will find a place to belong, believe, and become who God has called them to be.
