Dr. Tim Catlett<\/strong><br><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>My predecessor, Rev. Greg Moore, and our former bishop, Bishop Hope Morgan Ward, were fond of saying, in a pandemic-shaped world, \u201cEvery Church is a New Church Start.\u201d Some of the<br>same values and methodologies common to the co-creation of new faith communities are also present in local churches across our connection. New innovations are emerging in the ways we<br>engage in liturgical worship, relational discipleship, holistic mission, and how we serve and lead our local congregations. As we reclaim historical practices and try new ways to connect people to God and one another, my hope is we will continue to learn with one another, and strive together to pay attention to where the Holy Spirit is moving. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And may we remember, that when we experiment and innovate, we will often fail. However, the good news of the gospel is we serve a God who redeems failure. We serve a God who brings life out of death. We serve a God who is always with us! Thanks be to God for the gift and privilege to serve your local church, in such a time as this. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this newsletter, church servant leaders will share some of the ways they are seeking to innovate as they co-create new places for new people to gather in communion with Jesus. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-genesis-blocks-gb-button gb-block-button\"><a href=\"https:\/\/nccumc.org\/new-faith-communities\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2022\/07\/2022_Ed2_NewFaith-2.pdf\" class=\"gb-button gb-button-shape-rounded gb-button-size-medium\" style=\"color:#ffffff;background-color:#3373dc\">Read Full Newsletter<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>As always, thank you for your support.
