THRIVE Launch at FBC Palmer

Our Associational Thrive Launch is March 1 and 2, at FBC, Palmer. Thrive is a learning and fellowship cohort for pastors and staff that meets six times a year for 7 hours (Thursday afternoon and Friday morning). The work that the cohort has done together has provided challenge, fun and camaraderie. Usually this cohort requires an attendance covenant but March 1 and 2 is open to everyone to explore joining a cohort.

 

 

A Note from Gary

 

Thanks to everyone who participated in SOAP (Strategic Organization and Planning) on January 21 !!!! Some are saying that cooperative church planting will produce the greatest movement for evangelism, discipleship, Kingdom growth and missions cooperation that our denomination has experienced in many, many years, yet we are still asking God, "Does our own church health really depend on our resolve to help establish another church somewhere or our efforts to strengthen another existing church?” The New Year gives us some tremendous opportunities as we refocus on teamwork, again asking the hard questions concerning cooperative mission, as we reframe our partnership and set the stage to move forward in our Acts 1:8 work under the unity the Holy Spirit provides.

 

Serving as a co-laborer,

Gary
