A Church in Motion
On Sunday, June 7 we begin a new sermon series, A Church in Motion. The church isn't a place you go to; it's a body of people sent out into the world. It is a church community that is active, outward-facing, and constantly adapting, rather than confined to a building.
For the next several weeks, we will learn what it means to be and how to be A Church in Motion.
