Ordinary Time is more than marking the weeks until the next big event. It is a way of walking with Jesus and growing into our faith as we are making and being made into disciples. This Ordinary Time, you are invited to look at where you are – as individuals and as a community. We want to do that in two parts. We begin with what is familiar, what we see every day, and what we do week by week—the familiar, and maybe the over-familiar. We need to look at what we’ve seen so much that we don’t see it anymore. But we need to look; we need to see because this is where we are.
This is the First service of a 3 service Worship Series from the Discipleship Ministries.The graphics at the top of this page list the topics for the services of the Series.

Where is our mission field? That’s the question behind this week’s theme for Ordinary Time. And the quick answer is, right where you are.
