Evangelism/Transformation

rockpastor — Mon, 25 Feb 2008 19:51:47 GMT

Question for forum users:

Could evangelism help in the role of transformation and how would that look for your context(where you and your church is located)?

The Spring Thaw event is a worship to help us Presbyterians energize ourselves for the sharing of the good news in our neighborhoods and regions. As you get ready to attend, be praying for a fire to thaw ourselves and start making proactive decisions to share what God has done for us and what God can do for others that are seeking in our world.
See you April 5!
