VISION MONTH - ENGAGE There are some buildings that house organizations where the mission is so clear everybody knows why that organization exists. We live right down the street from a school, and at 8:00 am every morning the buses are dropping off little kids to go there. Why does this school exist? It is so that young minds can learn to read and write and grow and stretch. It exists for education. Not too far from here is a hospital. Why does a hospital exist? So that people can live. A hospital keeps people alive. These different needs are met by an infrastructure that engages and invests to better the lives of people in our community. We’re gearing up now for a new year of ministry. Why does a church exist? Why does it matter that we gather here? What does God expect to come from you and from me? Not just us together as a community, but your life and my life.
We started this vision month by answering a fundamental question: what does it mean for you to be passionately engaged, growing in Christ and impacting the world in the context of Bethesda? It is a simple challenge but if heeded will make a huge impact in your life and subsequently the life of Bethesda.
This is a month of intentionality and vision casting. Whether you are a guest for the first time looking for a new church or you have been attending for years here at Bethesda, engage with us on this journey.
