Visit a Church Different Than Mine...on March 31
At the Forum on Faith and Culture, everyone was encouraged to visit a church that is different from the one they normally attend: whether denominationally, culturally, or geographically. Though you're invited to do this whenever you'd like, they are inviting the community to make this intentional every 5th Sunday of the year. The first one is coming up March 31. See Love Out Loud for a list of congregations.
