This week, we reflect upon the reality that God created us for a purpose. He creates us, as relational beings, to live in community in order to fulfill the purpose and mission that we are created for. AtThe Table, we ask our members to covenant with each other once a year to live together in community on mission. Genesis 1:25-28 reminds us that we are intentioned by God for a purpose. As a church, we want to be on mission, guided by our values to pursue our vision.
