A Chance to Learn

How does the power of the gospel bring true change in the most difficult urban environments? What can we, as a suburban church, learn from those who have spent decades in the heart of our nation's cities?
 
At CFC, we want to be a people who listen and learn from the broader Body of Christ—especially those we have known well through years of gospel partnership. We are hosting an informal gathering to hear from Glen Kleinknecht and Bryant Lee of Cru Inner City. Glen is our longest-standing Global Staff member (50 years!!). These leaders have extensive experience navigating the unique plight and complexities of inner-city ministry across the entire United States. CFC wants to make disciples of all people and begin learning and thinking about how this could help us serve others in our own city. 
Our goal for this evening is to consider:

• What we can learn from leaders who serve the poor in the heart of American cities.
• How suburban churches like CFC can faithfully come alongside inner-city churches for the sake of the gospel in our contemporary culture.

Please note: This is not a call to launch a new program or fundraise at CFC, but rather it is an invitation to be informed. You won't be put on the spot to serve or give. We want to hear their stories, understand their approach to kingdom building, and learn how their experiences can help grow our own hearts. We know that many of you may want to join us, and maybe this could help us serve others as we continue to find more ways to LOVE LOCAL. If for no other reason, we think you would love to hear and interact with these two incredible brothers in Christ.
 
We would love to see you this coming Wednesday at CFC! We will meet in the Gathering from 12:00-1:30PM.  If you plan to attend, please send your RSVP to Sean Radke at Sean.Radke@onlinecfc.com by Monday.  As always, we are excited to worship with you this Sunday!
