Service
Speaking the truth in love, we
are to grow up in all aspects
into Him who is the head, even
Christ, from whom the whole
body, being fitted and held
together by what every joint
supplies, according to the
proper working of each
individual part, causes the
growth of the body for the
building up of itself in love.
Ephesians 4:15, 16

We need YOUR help!

There is an expectation for Graduate fellowships to be
more self sufficient and congregationally led.
Purpose of coordinator council is to alleviate the burden of
administrative overhead, not to relieve the members of a
voice in the direction, purpose, or format of the fellowship
1 year plan is still on the horizon
Formulate flow of events in a logical series
