PASTOR'S NOTE
"Missional is a helpful term used to describe what happens when you and I replace the "come to us" invitations with a "go to them" life. A life where "the way of Jesus" informs and radically transforms our existence to one wholly focused on sacrificially living for him and others and where we adopt a missionary stance in relation to our culture. It speaks of the very nature of the Jesus follower." Rick Meigs
Each and every moment of our lives, each and every person we meet, is an opportunity to pass the peace made possible in Jesus Christ.
Peace of Christ Always,
George
