SPRING SERIES
BE THE CHURCH
APRIL 16, - MAY 28, 2023
Prominently displayed in our church is a banner with nine simple phrases that represent a collective call to action, a call to Be the Church. These days, we are called into new ways of being and doing, and in this series, we seek to find out what role or roles in God’s mission we are to take up, as individuals, and as a body - and how that mission nurtures our relationship with God, one another, and our community?
