Upcoming Events
What makes us unique as a church? We sit in the shadow of some huge, powerhouse churches. We are neighbors to some smaller, more intimate congregations. Over the years we’ve had people leave our church to go to those other ones and people have left those to come to ours.
So, what make us unique among these various experiences of the faith and expressions of the gospel? What do we do well? What values undergird our strengths and drive our ministries? How can we better focus on our unique gifts for ministry, manage them more efficiently and offer them more effectively?
