Love in Action

Our group motto is "Small things done with great love will change the world".  We are inspired by Pastor Steve Sjogren's concept of Servant Evangelism (see the website at servantevangelism.com), and we seek to show the world Christian love through unexpected acts of kindness.  Our first project will be to enjoy a meal and some fellowship with each other and take the opportunity to give love and praise to the staff of a local restaurant.

First gathering: Sunday, December 13, 4:00-6:00 PM

Creation and Creator

We seek to reach people who care for Creation and wish to know the Creator. We work together to restore harmony in our lives and our environment through encouragement, education and engagement with our neighbors.  We live "in hope that the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the glorious freedom of the children of God." (Romans 8:21). We will spread this hopeful message of God's Covenant with Creation by participating in local environmental events and by providing education on living in better harmony with God's creation.

First gathering: Thursday, November 19th, 7:00 PM
