    This morning we have heard the life story and call of Faye to go and serve China in mission. Her mandate is the same as the one upon which the Church as we know it is built. It comes from a directive issued by Jesus himself to his disciples just prior to his ascension into heaven. We find it in ...read more

    When Jesus presents Himself as "The Way," what are the implications for us as Christians and as needy people?

    “Thomas said to [Jesus], ‘Lord, we do not know where you are going.
