Our Congregation
|
|
In
the past 10 years our church has grown over 35%. Worship attendance has
doubled and stewardship commitment has multiplied. Our benevolence has
grown from $150,000 to over a million dollars. Our membership spans the
generations. We are a church of active and committed young adults and
baptize 40 to 50 babies a year.
Our Church is set in a community that, like so many communities in
America, has been richly blessed. Our members are well educated and by
most any standards, affluent. We live in a culture that is often
characterized as a "consumer society," yet we follow a Lord who
tells us, "It is more blessed to give than to receive." One of
the key theological challenges for us is to respond to the great blessing
we have received from God by seeking to be generous stewards of all that
God has given. We seek to challenge people in discipleship to be faithful
stewards of all of God's gifts.
