Summary of latest entries

Most of our people are “Go-er People.” They have discerned a commission to kingdom outreach — and go in response to their commission. Some of our people are “Send-er People.” They provide administrative support for our go-ers. And some of our people are “MK people.” They are children of send-ers and go-ers.

Below you will find a sample of our latest blogging activity. Please have a look. The entries represent a slice of life from the center of our praying community.
