The Scattered Church

One of the important lessons we experience in Faith At Work is the power of the spoken work, of the personal testimony. We passionately strive to hold open a safe place for persons to tell their story. Many times this safe place is for persons to live into their stories, to learn to embrace (and be embraced) by their past, to recognize God's presence and working in their lives and to celebrate life today.

This new section of our website will be bringing you the stories of persons who have journeyed in this movement called "Faith At Work". Some of these persons have transitioned to The Next Place, into the Cloud of Witnesses referenced in Hebrews 11-12. Others continue to live out their faith among us.
