Each of us has been given a measure of
faith, and we are being called to use it to step out of loneliness and
isolation and into connection and belonging through our new Growth Groups. We’re
not always eager to try new things and that's where faith comes in. If faith
can move mountains, then surely it can move you to sign-up for a group.
In developing this new ministry, we
set what seemed to be a bold goal: a
ministry coordinator, two coaches and ten group leaders. Yesterday after church
we reached our goal as two people stepped forward to serve as coaches. Now all
that's left is for more of you to step out in faith and join a group. I have no
doubt that over the next two weeks; our groups will be filled and ready to
begin the first week in October.
Our first study with be on Healthy
Church Systems. For eight weeks we will be evaluating what we're doing now and
asking your ideas on how we can improve eight important systems in our church.
There is also an opportunity to suggest how we might expand each area in new
ways. Your voice is important and it will be heard. So join a group and
participate in this unique opportunity to make Cornerstone MCC even better than
it is today.
You are personally invited to step out
of yourself and step into a group. Sign-up today! And I'll be looking for you in church this
Sunday.
Rev Sandy, Interim Pastoral Leader
