RISE
. . . That
is the call of our regional of our regional
transformation journey. Over the next two
years, the Northwest Regional Church will
talk, pray, discern, gather, study, imagine,
and listen.
RISE
. . . Our
hope on this journey is to gain clarity
about who God calls us to be and what God
calls
us to do as the Regional Church.
RISE
. . . These
first steps of our journey will help identify
key issues facing us a Region.
The congregations of the Northwest Regional
Church are invited to RISE, to journey with
one another, listening for the movement
of the Holy in our midst. Gathering around
tables large and small, listening and reflecting,
examining scripture and our heritage, and
attending to the call of God to the church,
we will seek some consensus about the shape
and priorities of our shared regional life.
Over the course of the next 20 months or
so, congregations will be invited to participate
in this journey in a variety of ways...
