Presented by: Cory Erickson
What does it look like to answer God’s calling in different parts of the world? Join members of our congregation originally from other nations as they share their journeys of faith, the cultural and religious contexts they came from, and how life in the United States has shaped their Christian walk. Through personal stories and biblical reflection, we will explore what it means to be one body in Christ while carrying diverse experiences—and how these perspectives strengthen our mission to make disciples of every nation.
