Come. Explore.

Change the World. 2 0 1 5 - 2 0 1 6 C h r i st i a n Fo r m a t i o n

Deep in the heart of every person is a longing to live in a world transformed by love. This year at Christ Church Cathedral, we invite you on an exciting journey to discover what that can mean through the theme Come. Explore. Change the World. Come. No matter who you are, or where you are on your spiritual journey, each of us is being called by special invitation into a deeper relationship with God, ourselves and each other. Explore. The Holy Spirit uniquely gifts all of us, and exploration reveals the special gifts God has given you and our community to fulfill our destiny. Change the world. Knowing what our unique gifts are, we can use them to make our lives a blessing for others. After all, God has a dream to heal the world and using our unique gifts is how we participate in that dream. I invite you into a year of discovering how your unique gifts can meet the world’s deep needs. The benefits are this: We come alive when we discover who God intends us to be, and empowered by the Holy Spirit, together we can accomplish things greater than we could ever imagine. So let’s go on this journey together. Come gather with us, a people of prayer and action. Explore your soul purpose. And see how sharing your gifts can change the world! Carol+
