Congregational Life & Urban Mission Discussion group at the Congregational Earthquake Preparedness  Awareness Fair

What does it mean to be the Church? What does it mean to be the Church in the city we live? Put another way, what is to characterize the life of God’s gathered people, and how does this shape and empower its missional presence and witness in the world? These are questions that we want to continue to wrestle with for as long as we live, and we invite you to help us.

Have you been pondering these questions yourself? How has your particular ecclesial and theological tradition informed the way you answer these questions? What are you learning as you practice living as God’s community in the city in which you live? What books, writings or other resources have you found helpful along the way?Post on our Google Group here

Just the beginning

Welcome to the GRIDD. Whether you want to learn more about the city, see how God is at work in and through His Church, or to simply catch up with what we’re up to and what we’re thinking about these days, we want the GRIDD to be of service.
