It never ceases to amaze me how the creative work of God manifests itself in the world. Not just in art, music, film, poetry, photography and the usual venues, but also in the way that we organize ourselves to extend God’s love into the world. Check out what folks are up to a Come2Go in Fort Wayne, IN with their GO TEAMS:
Go teams are small groups of people who support each other in their faith and go out into the community to share Christ's love. We currently have 12 active go teams and more in the formation process. Everyone is invited to join us in a journey of growing faith through the practice of serving others.
Friends Forever:
A group who meets two Tuesdays a month for 1/2 hour to sing and make friends at University Park nursing home. This is a wonderful group to get comfortable serving in an outreach ministry.
Wood Youth Ministry:
Teams of four are sent out every Tuesday afternoon to minister to incarcerated children at the Allen County Juvenile Center. These groups consist of one musician, one teacher, one personal witness, and a silent individual who has conversations with one or more individuals within the group of youth who gather.
Bar Flies:
Small groups who gather in local taverns to talk about life and apply put their faith in action in a natural setting with a heart of joy and fun. It is the goal of these groups to simply be a point of contact for non-Christians to have a first connection with a person of God.
