Building Faith, Family and Friends



The ministry of community life
builds an environment of love, support, appreciation for adults at Christ's Chapel; develops meaningful relationships; and builds Faith in Christ. The content of our message will be heard only when it is lived in our relationships and community life. To teach compassion, generosity, peace, forgiveness, and love as gospel values and to identify ourselves as Christians require us to live these values in our interactions in our community life.

God's reign was proclaimed through the relationships Jesus initiated, and it continues to be heralded every time we witness our belief in him through the relationships in our community. The community life of the first Christians was a sign to everyone that Christ was in their midst (see Acts 2:42–47). The ministry of community life is not only
what we do (activity), but who we are (identity) and how we interact (relationships).

Community life is nurtured when the
atmosphere is welcoming, comfortable, safe, and predictable— Community life is enhanced with an attitude that all people are valued and cared for as gifted individuals.

Community life is encouraged when our
actions are inviting, supportive, and gospel-based.

Community life is created when
activities build trust and encourage relationships.
