chvrch

This is an alternative spelling of the common word "church" but that also has an alternative meaning that is not found in common dictionaries. Instead of applying to a religious congregation of like-minded believers or worshippers of a specific deity (or the physical building or structure where they gather to worship), "chvrch" may often used to denote a group, gathering, or assembly of people with the same interest, hobby, passion, and so on. For example, "the chvrch of baseball" would apply to a group of people with an extreme passion and enthusiasm for the sport of baseball. Since this passion can often be seen as an almost religious affinity for such an interest, it's very similar to the passion of religious believers. The alternative spelling is simply used to differentiate it as such.

chvrch

Is a space where you can consistently show up for yourself so you can better show up in the world. When you have a foundation built on self-acceptance and reassurance, you will walk taller, breathe easier, and know you can get through any of life's biggest {or smallest} challenges. We believe in community and cultivating one that is rooted in relatability, inclusivity, and the understanding that we are all humans, being. This shared life experience is brought to life in our studio, at CHVRCH. (founded in Salt Lake City, UT)
