50/50
Introducing 50/50 — a new monthly gathering for young adults where faith meets fun.
Are you good enough? Find out at the very first 50/50:
- Date: Wednesday, June 17, 6:00 PM–8:00 PM
- Location: The Kingdom, 12655 Antioch Rd, Overland Park
- First Hour: A raw, engaging faith message — “Am I Good Enough?” by Fr. Colm Larkin
- Second Hour: Live music or comedy — because faith should be fun too
No pressure, no dress code, just great conversation and good vibes.
Grab a drink. Bring a friend. Show up. 50/50 — half faith, half fun, 100% worth it. 
The next 50/50 is August 5, 2026 at 6pm at The Kingdom (12655 Antioch Rd)
Bring a friend and hear Fr. Waldeck speak and Adam Keith Schwinn entertain.
