The
mission of the Christian Life Center is to create
a Christ-centered environment where a wide range
of physical, social and spiritual enrichment activities
can be integrated through recreation, education
and fellowship that will serve all ages of our church
and community. The guiding principle is to provide
a biblically-centered focus for all programs and
promote family values, building minds and bodies
with Christ. |
A
New Building ... A New Beginning
Something
exciting is happening in the neighborhood! The doors
will open wide like the welcoming arms of an embrace.
Through the windows, light will stream in to brighten
your spirit and energize your soul. Noise and excitement
will escape the confines of the building, drawing people
in. You will feel welcomed.
We
plan to open the doors to the Christian Life Center
(CLC) with a ribbon-cutting ceremony and dedication
in November 2003. The month of December will be devoted
to welcoming events as groups from the church and neighborhood
will be invited for tours and activities. Advent by
Candlelight, Charge Conference and Sunday Night Alive
will move to the CLC in December. Regular programming
will begin in January with the introduction of sports
schedules and other exciting class offerings. We look
forward to sharing our new space and programs with you!
