God calls and equips the whole church for this mission to the world. He calls us to witness and equips us in the power of the Holy Spirit.
If you would like to participate in the 1Hope vision to better serve our children, congregation, and community and to set Pathway up to continue to share the hope and freedom found in Jesus for generations to come you can RESPOND by filling out a commitment card or giving today.

Throughout this 1Hope journey we have asked that each and every one of us PRAY - asking God what he would have us give during this 2-year vision. LISTEN for this prompting and leading. And ultimately we will all be asked to RESPOND next week on Commitment Sunday. If you have done that there’s a good chance that today is a great day to talk about faith. When we ask God, truly and openly, what his will is for us it takes faith to respond - regardless of how big or small we might perceive the steps to be.
Faith is a word we use all the time in Christianity, in the church, but are we really clear about what it means?
You really CANNOT understate the importance, the purpose of the local church. The church serves as a spiritual military outpost, preparing, equipping, and sending believers to engage in the battle for truth and righteousness in the world.
God has been writing a story since the beginning of time. And all our lives are part of
that eternal story.
This is a LONG story. With more generations than we can count. But in each one two
things are true: 1) God has been faithful and 2) God has called individuals, people
groups and churches to take steps of faith that would impact future generations. Ours is
no different. We have an opportunity to invest in the future of Pathway church by giving
generously in the present so that others can come and worship, come and see that God
is pursuing them, come and be reconciled to God. And that’s what it's ALL about.
