• Fellowship encompasses the church's community connection with gatherings like after-worship coffee hour, game night, communion potlucks, plus outings and events.
• Caring engagement is about the Christian relationship through personal contact, such as sending cards of thought, prayer or special occasions, visitations, and small groups. It also ensures that individual church members needing care and attention get it when circumstance call for additional help or outreach; those sick or in need of encouragement. They send birthday and anniversary cards to our members, and generally look out for the welfare of the congregation.
