Our 2015 Ministry Plan is focused on discipleship: Becoming disciples, growing as disciples and making disciples. This summer Bob and the other elders will be preaching on key passages that define or describe discipleship and disciple making. You’ll be able to hear our hearts for this essential subject, and, we hope, God’s heart. Here’s the plan:
