Meet and Greet with Rev. Casey and Jamie McDorman
The New Vision Church Board voted unanimously to call Reverend Casey McDorman as our new senior pastor. Casey accepted the nomination. The church had the pleasure of hearing from Reverend Casey and Jamie McDorman at an informal meet and greet on Thursday, January 19th. For those unable to attend, this is an audio recording of that meeting. It was exciting to hear both Casey and Jamie’s passion for the Lord.

Connection Groups – Winter 2017

A New year, a new semester of connection groups! Now starting January 17th for the kids’ group and the week of January 22nd for all others. We’re having a 4 week semester of connection groups following the Sunday message series on the book “Sacred Pathways” by Gary Thomas. Are you envious of the way that some people seem to walk closely with God? Gary Thomas insists that it’s better to discover the path God designed you to take–a path marked by growth and fulfillment, based on your unique temperament. In Sacred Pathways, he strips away the frustration of a one-size-fits-all spirituality and guides you toward a style of relating to God that frees you to be you.
