Thank you to all
who attended our first
Connections
with Congregational Vitality
If you were unable to attend, we will be hosting another connections event soon, but not to worry, we will share all of our resources here.
The purpose of the connections events are to introduce various ministries from around the diocese, explain what they are, how they can help and who to talk to. It helps us build a network of meaningful relationships where we can support each other,
and share ideas and friendship.
Thank you for your dedication
to your congregations and
to our greater purpose.
“If there is among you anyone in need,
a member of your community in any of your towns within the land
that the Lord your God is giving you,
do not be hard-hearted or tight-fisted toward your needy member.
You should rather open your hand,
willingly lending enough to meet the need, whatever it may be.”
Deuteronomy 15:7-8
