Leap of Faith
Leap of Faith is a 6-week, community-wide, faith-building experience during Lent that is intended to help the entire church family take a collective step forward in trusting and living out the ways of God. At the heart of LOF are regular prayer and faith-stretching practices that we do as a family, collectively digging deeper for a short-season, with the benefit of long-term growth.
