Setting Our Course for the Future

Our Calling to Discernment

We in the 21st century church recognize that our world is shifting.  Everything around us - our way of communicating, technology, trasporation, and education to name a few - is changing.  Trying to keep up often feels like riding out a stormy sea. What has worked well in the past is no longer working as well and we find ourselves anxious and off-balance. The presbytery is seeking to engage in creative and faithful ways the change we are encountering.  We would like to invite you to join us in setting the course for our future.

We are inviting all ministers, laity, and session members to join us in a period of Bible Study and Reflection that will hep us chart our course.  Your responses will provide markers to our Discernment Team as they recommend a Strategic Direction group to help us find our way.

This page lists the resources that will assist you on the journey.
