The Community's Big Announcement --- hiring our 2nd full-time staff member

This past Sunday Pastor Michael and our leadership team announced that we are hiring our 2nd full time staff member. This is a huge deal and a step of faith that God has led us to take. Our future is lined with hope and with much to give our community as we share Christ with them.

Susi Fulcher has served on The Community's leadership team leading children's ministry for over a year. At the end of this month, Susi joins us and will begin to paid for what she is already doing (and do a bit more). Her responsibilities will be administration, children and events (A.C.E.). Susi brings creativity, energy, joy and a heart for God and His people. She is also into the details (which is a big deal to help us move forward with gusto).

Susi is married to Greg (our tattoo artist in residence), and they have two precious kids (Katlynn is 6 and Konner is 2).

Help us welcome Susi to this new role by praying for her, encouraging her and being part of your church family as we are part of demonstrating the love of God to our community as a church family.

We are most alive when we are loving and actively giving of ourselves because we were made to do these things. It is when we live like this that the Spirit of God moves and ac...

inspiration from C.S. Lewis

Lewis first grabbed my attention when I was in 5 th grader, and our teacher, Mrs. Foy, shared The Chronicles of Narnia with our class.

It wasn’t until his 30’s that under the influence of his friend Tolkien that he came to be a Christian. He was raised in a traditional church going home, turned away from God as an Atheist in his teen years and through trying to stay away from God and faith returned to God with...
