5 Practices

They're Here! Pick up your copy at this Sunday and next, at the sanctuary doors after each worship.

Cultivating Fruitfulness, the devotional books we will read together as a congregation during Focus on the Five Practices, are now in. The members of every household are encouraged to read these devotions, Scriptures, prayers, and challenges together during the five weeks. Each week, we'll read together about the practice that we'll focus on in the upcoming Sunday worship.

Praying and reflecting on each practice, how it affects your life, and what it means for the life of our church will prepare you for a transforming time of worship together.

Small Groups Bear Fruit

Our Focus on the Five Practices is not a sermon series, a book study, or a Bible study; it's a special, committed time for all of us to think, pray, and learn together about the purpose and ministry of our congregation. It's a time to make plans and dream about the best we can be as a congregation.

If you are interested in focusing on one of these practices, join a Planning Group!
