God wants to touch us.
In the Eucharist God shows us his desire to touch us physically. Human touch is vital
for our emotional and spiritual wellbeing. God knows this and so instituted the
Eucharist not only to enter into a new covenantal relationship with us but to physically touch us with his body and blood. Not is a gruesome way but just as we touch
each other in appropriate and loving ways—our bodies and blood when they unite in
a hand shake bond us and hold us in community.
Our Vision & Mission Statement
Community of God Serving Humanity
A welcoming Community rooted in the Word of God .
Celebrating our diversity as a spirit-filled family of God.
