Spiritual Gifts

You have gifts given to you by the Holy Spirit. Whether they are gifts for energizing a crowd or finding a calm center for prayer, teaching children or listening to someone caught up in grief, you have gifts. The church's calling to "make disciples" is lived out as we help each other discover and develop the gifts of the Spirit within each of us.

The gifts most closely associated with the Spirit are those Paul talks about in Galatians: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness, self control and love. These are rich places to begin exploring the Christian life. If you have a gift you would like to strengthen and exercise, let one of our pastoral staff know, and we will help you find ways to make the best use of your gifts to the glory of God.
