Explore Calling

God calls everyone into ministry, but “ministry” means more than ordination. Let us help you LISTEN to what God and others are saying, DISCERN the meaning of what you are hearing and RESPOND well to what you have discerned. The call of God is diverse. The call God has placed on your life is unique. Your role in the life of the church is vital. Let us help nurture your call.
