2. What does it mean to be ‘missional’  The Church sees itself as being missionaries to a post-Christian world right where we live.  We are sent into our communities as representatives of Jesus  Church is not a place where we go but what we are through the week

3. Being missional means…  Jesus is active in our culture – we are able to join him in what he is doing  We are in the world and engaging with that culture but not ‘OF IT’  All of this means we are more dependent on Jesus and The Holy Spirit, through prayer, the scriptures and each other.  Being ‘Naturally Supernatural’!!
