ISAIAH

Some of us recently had the opportunity to hear Rev. Alan Storey, Methodist minister from South Africa. He is a powerful speaker and presenter. His message is clear and bold - God has no favorites.

As Christians we are to do as Jesus did - i.e commit ourselves in a transformational way to the outcasts, marginalized poor among
us. Not just when it is convenient or when we feel like it.

The work of ISAIAH affirms this by calling us to action. The have created Public Discipleship Formation for Such a Time as This.
A Summer & Fall Faith Journey for Your Church.
