Jesus invites each one of us to come and follow Him. At LAC we draw three core values from His first invitation to His disciples in Matthew 4:19 –
- Be present with Jesus
- Be surrendered to Jesus
- Be others focused as Jesus leads
The women of LAC desire to be intentional about doing this together in community.
Jesus’ invitation is not to just come and observe, but to grow and change. Thus, the goal of women’s discipleship at LAC is to encourage each other to FLOURISH as we “lead each other to Jesus and His life-transforming work locally and around the world."
