​#34 - God's Mission has a Church

Saturday, 10:30 am - 12 noon
Presenter:  Teresa M. Wakeen Priest Missioner, The Church at Crossroads - Episcopal, Detroit, MI

Workshop Description
We all love the Church and while God does too, the mission of God is always guiding the Church into the world where God is already abundantly planting. Church planting is about joining with the people and places where God's action is already happening. What then is our job? Told in the context of a three year church plant, The Church at Crossroads- Episcopal, Detroit, the workshop will explore ideas of God's calling and our listening; deeply considering mission and vision; listening and discerning new understandings for the shape of ministry; going through "doldrums," embracing others widely, waiting on the Spirit, keeping faith and other topics. Come join the discussion, see what and where God is guiding you and those who would join with you. Find and follow God into the world. Rejoice and be Glad!

I would like to understand where God is guiding us into the world and reaching out to others.

Hi Sharon,
This is a beautiful wondering. Some things to wonder about occur to me: Are there others in your context who would like to understand the same thing? Would there be a circle outside your immediate church community but in your wider local community who would share their feelings about the internal hunger of people around them and/or their own selves? These questions are just a start. Meanwhile, your question will remain in my discernment and prayer, Sharon, especially as the conference approaches. I'll be glad to learn about your context and imagine with you what the Spirit may be guiding. blessed peace, Teresa+
