who we are. why we are.

As a church we value community, we love to see people from all backgrounds come together under the basis of grace on an equal footing. It is an amazing thing that God does in bringing people with all sorts of different stories and experiences and makes them into one body. We experience it on Sunday mornings and for many of us in our home groups…different people, but brought together to grow with one another. There is value in the wisdom of those who have walked more life than we have, but there are times we want to be with people who are traveling alongside in a similar fashion of life experiencing similar things. Thus re:create.

re:create is for people at AGCC who are in their 20s and 30s who want to connect with one another. While it is not necessarily an environment for Bible study or worship…it is a formative environment for community. It creates time and space in our lives to connect with those who we can journey with. It is a time for us to be recreated through recreation. Our hope and desire is to be able to come on Sunday morning and not just see familiar faces but to know some of the lives of the people with whom we worship. As time continues, we’ll see where God takes these relationships, but for now we are spending time together. It might not appear overtly spiritual or “productive,” but as a mentor of mine once told me, “Intimacy is built in wasting time together.”
