Called or Curious to Full-Time Ministry? (Lunch)

Date: Sunday, November 30 | Time: 12:45 PM - 2:30 PM | Location: Upper CLC Auditorium | Age: All ages welcome! (Children Jr. High age and Younger must be accompanied by an adult.) | Food will be provided.

Pastor Brent Foster and Pastor Josh Palsky will be hosting a special after-church lunch entitled “Called or Curious to Full-Time Ministry?” If you’ve ever felt a whisper from the Holy Spirit stirring something in your heart—a question, a nudge, a curiosity about serving God vocationally—this is for you. Whether you feel called or simply curious (even just “peering over the fence” like Wilson from Home Improvement!), come join us.

This opportunity is open to all ages—from students who are just beginning to sense God’s direction, to adults in midlife who may feel the Spirit rekindling a call that’s been on the back burner. God calls people at every stage of life, and we want to walk with you as you discern that call.

Pastor Brent and Pastor Josh will share their own stories, offer practical wisdom, pray with you, and help you explore next steps. There’s no pressure—just a safe, Spirit-filled space to listen together. Please register below so we can plan for food.
