Messy Church Information Session

The Center For Leadership Excellence is hosting a short information session about Messy Church to determine whether to bring Messy Church leaders in for a day-long training…

The tag line for the Messy Church movement is, Church, but not as you know it. If you have attended church for a long time, Messy Church may not look like church to you. At Messy Church, all ages meet together to learn about Christ through games, crafts and activities, music, and storytelling from the Bible. A foundational ingredient of Messy Church is to gather around a table for a snack or meal and build relationships with each other, God, and the world.
