NEW WORSHIP EXPERIENCE

Would you like to help create a new worship ministry experience at LCR? I am looking for help in my quest to start a Sunday evening worship service focused on encouraging attendance among the local young adult population (ages 18-30). The service will feature folk- and taize-influenced hymns, open discussions of the Gospel, and free-trade coffee served weekly. My goal is to have this ministry in place for the start of Advent. Any and all help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you all for your continuing support of the youth and music ministries we have established, and thank you for considering this new opportunity to expand our horizons!

Cottage Meetings for Discernment Partnership for Missional Church
THE GENESIS GROUP IS BORN!
Genesis is about beginnings and this group seeks to develop relationships and to provide fellowship activities for people who are starting their adult lives, beginning careers, beginning to be homeowners, beginning to be parents, beginning marriages, beginning new friendships, and beginning a new stage in their lives as disciples. It targets adults in their 20’s and 30’s (and their children), but is open to people of all ages. Our goal is to get together every other month and to alternate between “grown-ups only” and family events. [more..]
