Kingdom Diversity We Belong Together in our Love of Christ
Kingdom Diversity is about:
- Enhancing our sense of belonging and connectedness,
- Learning from and understanding one another,
- Praying with and for one another, and
- Collaborating within our community with one another.
Our differences enrich our lives and experiences and deepen our love and appreciation for God’s plan.
