THIS IS WHAT I WOULD LOVE TO DO...

1 Peter 2:9
But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.

This is not just a scripture text.... It is the heart of God for ALL of us who call Him Saviour and Lord.  We, as Explore Life Church, want to make sure that this is a reality for you in the life of this church!  

This form is an opportunity to let us know where you would love to serve as part of the royal priesthood.  Serving is not as much about fulfilling a duty as it is about fulfilling God's purposes for you in this family.
