MISSIONAL LIVING
Journey with us weekly through prompted prayers, spiritual practices, and acts of care for the people around us. In Lent we focus on our vocations — (1) pray for flourishing of your workplace and coworkers, (2) practice prayers of confession, and (3) reach out to colleagues with thoughtful acts of care. Share your story of Living on Mission to inspire a movement of service in our city.
