Orientation

Who is the church for?  We have been considering this fundamental question. Is it primarily for those already within the walls, those we know and feel comfortable with? Or is it also for those not yet here?  I love the Episcopal Church and all it has to offer, and know that the church could be a blessing to many who have never been inside our doors. Those folks pull on my heart as our group considers our future. As we work, study, pray, and discern, I look to them.  How could the church address the hunger in their hearts?  How could the church touch their lives in ways that matter? What is God calling us to do, as part of the body of Christ, to join with people where they are?
