Our Sister Church Relationship--Our Church has come alongside a fledgling church in Shkoder, Albania and has maintained a 'sister' relationship with them since 1991 shortly after the fall of communism in that country.

Rethinking Church
--Jesus' last words on this earth were a command to the church to "make disciples of all nations."  (Matthew 28.18-20). This booklet explores what the Bible says about 'church' in regards to this mission of turning ordinary people into committed followers of Christ.

The Feast of Fellowship--This booklet takes a biblical look at our celebration of the Lord's Supper (Communion) and why it is such an important event in the church's life today.
