OUR STORIES CONNECT READERS & Create COMMUNITY
What better way to create connection and community, than to share our readers’ stories of celebration, gratitude, wider church news, Disciples history, and victory over the odds? These personal stories can connect us to one another and the True Vine.
Our stories can have the transformative power to:
- Enrich and strengthen our common faith and sense of history as Disciples
- Provide the insight to define an “abundant life” that can accommodate personal loss and lessening capacity
- Inspire the courage to achieve small and large victories, while coping with the challenges of aging
- Identify the rewards of continuing service, in His name, as we age in response to God’s love and amazing grace
wHEN WE HEAR FROM YOU, WE WILL BE IN TOUCH.
