Stay up to date!
From Sunday:

What is our calling as a church? Is it just to make sure everyone is comfortable who comes to worship here at Slash?
Are we supposed to instead reach out into the world with the message of the Gospel and share it? Is it both?
Our calling as Slash Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) began 176 years ago Our building as a Christian house of worship almost 300 years ago. How have we lasted that long here in Hanover County? 
It was not by simply seeing to our own comfort. It was by finding new and creative ways to share the Gospel with the next generation. The worshippers at Slash have always known that we should not make a monument of our building but must continue to be the movement Jesus created so long ago.
 
En Agape',
Rev. Michael Weeks
