No Perfect People: Why Your Authentic Self Belongs in New Braunfels this Christmas

The holiday season in the Texas Hill Country is beautiful. Between the lights at Gruene Hall and the festivities in downtown New Braunfels, there is a certain "magic" in the air. But for many of us, underneath the festive surface, there’s a quiet pressure to be perfect.

We feel we must have the perfect decorations, the perfect family gatherings, and—most exhausting of all—we feel we must be "perfect" to walk through the doors of a church.

At Stonewater Fellowship, we have a different rule: No Perfect People Allowed.

A New Kind of Church for Real People

If you are searching for a church near New Braunfels where you don’t have to hide your struggles, you’ve found it. We aren't interested in the "Sunday version" of you; we are interested in the real you.



Our mission is simple: to engage all people to become multiplying followers of Jesus. That journey doesn't start with perfection—it starts with an authentic relationship with God and a community that has your back. Whether you are in Gruene, Sattler, or Mission Hills Ranch, there is a seat for you here.

Christmas is for the "Unfinished"

The very first Christmas wasn't "perfect." It was messy, unexpected, and filled with ordinary people called to an extraordinary mission. That is how we view our faith today.



We believe that being a "disciple" isn't about knowing all the answers; it’s about being well-equipped and fully deployed on the mission Jesus gave us. This December, don’t let the weight of expectations keep you from experiencing peace.
