Partnering with Central Union Mission

Friday, May 30th, 2008

As we look back over the years, partnering with Central Union Mission and all of the guys there has been a huge blessing. Each year the Mission oversees giving away about 50,000 cups of water on the Mall near the main stage. It’s sharing God’s love with people in a practical way. Thanks Central Union Mission!

Special Outreach Training

Friday, May 16th, 2008

We believe in training and mentoring people on how to share the good news of Christ in ways that really connect and also in love with people. 1 Corinthians 9:22-23 says, … Yes, I try to find common ground with everyone so that I might bring them to Christ. I do all this to spread the Good News, and in doing so I enjoy its blessings. One of our goal is to teach Christians how to share the one message of the gospel of Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians 15:1-4) in ways that connect with people living in our culture today. Come on out to the training and learn how to share more relationally and effectively with people!
