Question: |
Why not call it Manna Community Church, or something catchy like that? |
Answer: |
Well, we called it manna? because as it began and “grew,” we weren’t sure what it was. It began five years ago with three friends meeting once a week at J.P.’s coffee-house to hang out, share a Bible passage and pray. After about a year other people started showing up and they couldn’t all fit in the booth. So they started meeting other places, like taking turns at each other’s house. It was mostly just some friends that wanted to share a little, study a little, pray a little and take communion. No one was sure if that made it a church or not. Plus, there never has been a Master Plan or Growth Strategy or Organizational Structure or anything… just folks depending on God’s grace one day at a time. So they just called it manna? |
