SUMMARY:The Small Church Story Project in the Maine Conference
DESCRIPTION:Intrigued by reports of small\, rural\, congregations who are creating new ways of “being church’\, Rev Douglas Dunlap and Rev Susan Craig formed The Small Church Story Project in 2015. Their efforts are to gather the stories of such congregations of the Maine Conference to share with churches small and large\, wherever these may be\, in the nation or the world. Also to counter the narrative that small churches have no other future than that of closing and how small size can be turned to advantage which leads to spirited worship\, vibrant fellowship\, and responses to Christ’s call to serve that are engaging\, effective\, and heartening. \nJoin us as Rev Roberto Ochoa meets with Rev Dunlap and Rev Craig to find out more about the Small Church Project and to hear the stories of small\, rural\, congregations making a difference in their communities of spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
