2040 VISION QUESTION:   
HOW DO YOU SHARE CHRIST CHURCH WITH YOUR NEIGHBOR?
The latest "2040 Question" builds on Rev. Rod Quainton's sermon on Sunday, May 6 and available here. Later, Faith & Practice featured a conversation on the subject of Evangelism and how is God active in your life? How do you tell others this good news? With that conversation as inspiration, the latest 2040 question is...When you meet a neighbor, how do you share your experience of Christ Church? 
 
Tell us your thoughts via this link or via the Prevost Cloister box. 
 
Direct your questions or interest in contributing to the 2040 Committee. Peter Macey  [email protected]   or Molly Hufton   [email protected].
