Mission
Education

God has a mission. To reach every family on earth with the message of the Gospel and to invite them to participate in the new life that is offered in it.
The Gospel is about love for God and neighbor that is put into action through words and deeds that build up, benefit, and beautify community. JESUS shows us how to love unconditionally, sacrificially, and completely.
Christians are called by the Spiirt to love others, by following the way of JESUS, who empowers us and inspires us to follow. Everyday we can make the world better for someone else. When we do, we participate in the ongoing creative healing of creation. GOD's justice/love is the disciples' calling.

A Christian life is learned and shared by adults and children in daily activity. We are made disciples as we learn the way of Jesus and practice it at home, work, school, in in neighborhoods.

You are invited to a new community of families devoting themselves to his way of life together. Together we will explore worship, learning and equipping, family mission opportuniites, and spiritual practices for daily family life. Our goal is to find common ways to practice our faith together.

Join us for a family lunch on February 18th at Zion Lutheran, Akron. 12:30 pm. RSVP at 859-2100 or pastormattl@dejazzd.com
