Family History

Every family or group of friends has a collection of stories that gets repeated all the time; when a guest comes into the group, these are often the first stories they are told.  Whether they are heroic, tragic, or simply entertaining, they remind the group of who they are, where they have been, and where they are going.  For the church, the book of Acts functions like those stories.  Together, we will look at the book of Acts to have a better understanding of our family history... and what it means for our family's future.
