Further Reflections on the Mission Theme

by John Legge

 

     I appreciate Katie’s reflections on the year so far.  It has been heartening to journey with our Mission Committee, church staff, and most importantly, so many from our congregation who have engaged in deepening our understanding of the relationships Christ calls us to.  In addition to the listening and reflecting that Katie highlighted, we have continued to serve in so many ways.

·         Participation in Community MLK event

·         Expanding relationships with Henderson Towers residents

·         Building a Habitat house

·         Hosting homeless families through Interfaith Hospitality Network

·         Raising $4500 during the Durham CROP Walk

·         Food donations and volunteering at Urban Ministries

·         Support for summer youth mission activities  

     I look forward to listening, learning and growing with our congregation and within our community.  I’m grateful for the opportunity to be a part of something that feels so important.  Thanks to all of you who’ve helped nurture this environment where Christ’s messages of love and giving are coming to life.
