SeasonsFUSION provides resources that support congregational life as we worship, live, learn, and grow as disciples.
These resources stretch some of our understandings of worship, learning and serving, and seek quite literally to fuse them together. The resources are designed for time together, as well as apart, that is holistic, for all ages, and invites us into creativity. They are also designed to be used along with your own ideas; SeasonsFUSION will work best when a planning team is able to look at the materials and choose and/or adapt those that will work best in your situation.
SeasonsFUSION is designed for:
-
large and small congregations looking for resources that integrate or fuse worship, learning, and service, and that support the many ways they practice Christianity
-
congregations where age range and numbers make age-level faith formation programs difficult to maintain
-
vital congregations committed to faith formation and living their lives together in ways that embody and nourish faith
-
congregations that look to lay worship/preaching teams and need study help
-
congregations that want to experiment with reshaping their lives together as a worshipping and learning community
-
congregations that are looking for support for growing faith and discipleship at home
-
congregations that… well, you fill in the blank!
