Missional Discipleship

The Missional Discipleship Menu is designed to organize our opportunities for general Gospel discipleship. They are designed to form us together as a people who love mercy and do justice in Christ. They are organized to share our spiritual practices in community. Above are this year's offerings.  Life groups are diverse, regularly meeting gatherings.  Learning experiences are a limited educational time centered on a topic, character, or practice. Socials are less frequent but help connect those across shared affinities.
