Missional Imagination

"As we began and continue to process what it means to be a missional church, Pastor Cortes Bast and her team led us in a process of deep discernment and learning. Birthed from the experience is the Emergency Food Pantry (Fort Plain) and the Bike Path Ministry (Sprakers) that feeds and provides respite for hundreds of people."
