Today at our in-person service we will take time to serve our local strategic partner, GoodRoots Northwest, and help them pack supplies for their summer power packs. We do this every once in a while at Open Life to remind ourselves that Jesus has called us to action with all that he has done inside our spirit. We’re going to have such an awesome time serving with one another. This short devotional is something that Thad will share before we begin our work this morning.

We are a diverse community made up of all kinds of cultures, races and socio-economic backgrounds. But we are united in what counts, the mission of Jesus. People leading people into a growing relationship with Jesus. 

We connect with God and each other, serve God and each other and share our lives with God and each other.  We do this through a weekly gathering, classes and groups that help us grow deeper in our faith and events that benefit our community. 

We rent a school facility to worship in and we are remodeling a 100+ year old building we do everything else in. We are driven to be a benefit to the community around us and make a generous impact in the world by helping where it hurts both locally and globally. 

You can expect some very friendly people and not just the ones who look like they were assigned a post because we are genuine around here. During the services we worship with singing, prayer and a message that is heavy on the use of scripture. We want everyone who joins us to experience Jesus, not just someone sharing some inspirational thoughts or a great show. This doesn't mean we don't have fun...we bring the fun. Especially for the kids! We value all ages experiencing Jesus so we provide kids life on Sundays and student life during the week in order to facilitate age targeted discipleship for every generation.  We keep it uncomplicated so that you can be a normal person with a life that begins resembling the ways of Jesus within the community.  We know the most powerful impact we can equip you to make is to be present with the community being a light and sharing the love of God to all who have yet to encounter it. This is our mission.
