Who We Are
BEING
From the beaches of Hawaii, the coast & farmland of California, the snow covered Sierras, to the deserts of Arizona and New Mexico, we come together as one to be Christ's love, do His amazing work and take the Word by going into our communities, our nation and the world.
When we think of sharing the Good News about hope in Jesus, God's love and forgiveness, and life in God's spirit we are talking about a way of being. When we draw close to God, God draws close to us and we can be who we truly are in Christ.
When we think of discipleship, it is about allowing our lives to be formed in the process of following Jesus, with our whole person and community, engaging in God's mission and presence already present, and inviting others to do the same.
DOING
GOING
When we think of an art form discovered in the journey of following Jesus and the accountability of community, we are thinking of leadership. Christ-following leaders are often formed along the way and always in process and only ever arrive in further depths and variety of growing in grace and transforming relationships with God and others
