Trails of Rockport

 

“He appointed twelve-designating them apostle- that they might be with them.” (Mark 3:14)

 

The Trail experience helps to lead an individual to God by reflecting Christ in Community: Making Disciples of Jesus Christ for the Transformation of the World. By being a Trail participant you will Encounter God’s Love, Grow in God’s Love, Give in God’s Love and Serve in God’s Love.

 

Webster defines a trail as a path. The Trails traveled at Rockport are paths that lead us on multiple journeys. Each Trail takes its own direction and journey depending on the interest of those walking the Trail. A Trail may meet in someone’s home, others in a restaurant while another might meet in the Metro Parks. A Trail might lend itself to quilting, bible study, sports events and biking just to list a few.

 

As a Trail participant you will answer God’s call to participate in community in order to grow in Christ likeness, to express and receive care from each other, pray, share your story and be in relationship with others.

 

I believe God created us to be in relationship (Genesis 1:26; 2:18-23). We affirm the presence of Christ among us when we gather together. A Trail will enable you to have new opportunities to become more involved with the members of our church family as well as with others who are friends beyond the Rockport family circle. Trails are open to your neighbors or a newcomer. Feel free to invite folks to join us.

 

Most Trails last only four to six weeks. They meet at the convenience of the Trail members. For more information see Reverend Barbara

 

A variety of Trails are ready for you to embark upon. Sign up for the Trail of your choice in the hallway across from the church office.

 

An Entertainment Book Trail Group is being formed and all are invited to participate. Each month the group will attend a restaurant or event using a coupon from the 2012 Entertainment Book.
