Monday Mission - Servant Leadership
Last week I was reading in John 13 about how Jesus washed his disciples’ feet before they sat down to celebrate Passover together the night before Jesus was crucified.

Praying with intentionality and meaning, deep conversations with God, daily Bible reading time, and devotions. What about you, how's your spiritual health right now?
Monday Mission – Who should I take out for a cup of coffee?

Mission Monday – What’s in a Word
