Description
What does it mean to be the church in 2023? This crucial question led representatives from Englewood Christian Church/CDC, Lawndale Christian Community Church, and Missio Alliance to launch Cultivating Communities. Learn about their work in congregational formation and the role it plays in Christian community development. What is formation? How do the desires that fuel it shape congregational and community life? The Cultivating Communities team will introduce their congregational Learning Journey, which was forged over two decades of church-based community development in Indianapolis and Chicago. Participants will learn about congregational practices for embodying and embracing real community among neighbors. Speakers: Josh Livingston, Lisa Rodriguez-Watson, Jonathan Brooks
