Loving across borders
At Abundant Grace we… Do what Jesus is doing Each of us Every day Everywhere
We are equipped as global disciples as we gather for worship, connect in small groups, and serve in and beyond our community.
Jesus is… 1. Loving across borders, learning to build
community with people not like us.
Jesus is… 1. Loving across borders2. Birthing new creativity in us, and helping us
to reach out to creative and artistic persons who haven’t yet connected with God’s love and Abundant Grace.
Jesus is… 1. Loving across borders2. Birthing new creativity 3. Healing and setting people free and shaping
us as a community of healing and deliverance. We are wounded healers connecting our wounds and the wounds of others to the healing, liberating hands of Jesus.
