Hospitality At Easter, Christmas and Beyond


by

The Church exists not only for those in it, and but also for those who are yet to be a part. Our primary mission is reaching people beyond our walls. This calls for the involvement of everyone in every community of believers everywhere. We all have a part to play. It takes many different approaches to share our faith with others.

ChurchMag’s Story Continues


by

ChurchMag has been a part of life in different ways for about a decade. Even in its earliest day, it was a great resource. When I came across it I was part of a church plant.

The next part of ChurchMag’s story is one I could’ve never scripted.
