Good Road Community

The Good Road Community is a group of people who are seeking to love Native American/First Nations peoples well.

Join us

At the beginning of His ministry, Jesus (whose name means "Creator Sets Free") said:

The time has now come!” he said to the people. “Creator’s good road is right in front of you. It is time to return to the right ways of thinking and doing! Put your trust in this good story I am bringing to you.
(Mark 1:15, First Nations Version)

The Good Road Community has been created as a natural next step as Vineyard Gilbert has been expanding and growing our Loving Native America community, as well as other ways that the Vineyard has been intentional in pursuing bringing reconciliation, care, healing, and restoration (in the way of Jesus) in practical ways. 

Gathering Bi-Monthly

We gather in person every other Sunday night at 5 pm for dinner, and focused study and conversation on practical ways to embody mercy and justice as families, a community, and a church.

We rotate between two locations:
  • The Eaton home in Mesa (near Baseline and Country Club)
  • The Bidderman home in Gilbert (near Picos and Higley)

*Childcare can be available!

Community Focus

As we gather we examine the ways that the Lord has been, and is, inviting our church to learn about and partner with leaders and organizations in Native America.


Leaders: Joel Bidderman, Charissa Ferguson, and Allen & Vicki Eaton
