Take part in exploring your part in exploring your SHAPE for gods service…
This is a journey of discovering God-given gifts, abilities, passions, and how to nurture and deploy them. The course is for everyone (whether long-standing or new in faith), because each one of us bears in our heart a unique calling. Sometimes that calling lies quiet, waiting for encouragement, space, and permission.

SHAPE is about helping us see what God has already placed within us, freeing us from comparison or shame, and empowering us to serve in ways that bring purpose and joy. As Saint Paul encourages us: each of us has a gift, “one has this, another has that” (Romans 12). As a church, when more of us step into our God-given shape, we become stronger — more diverse, more resilient, more loving.
