THE VISION
CRSWLK Center for Christian Formation and Discipleship provides a three-year cohort based formation journey helping participants learn to live daily life with God. Rooted in belovedness, formed through shared practices, and expressed in loving presence toward others, the cohort cultivates people who naturally embody the way of Jesus in relationships, leadership, and community. Rather than adding more activity, ABIDE guides participants into the restful, integrated life found in the easy yoke of Christ.
THE MISSION
CRSWLK Center for Christian Formation and Discipleship exists to cultivate disciples who live daily life with God. Through shared practices, honest community, and attentive reflection, participants learn to rest in belovedness, follow the way of Jesus in ordinary relationships, and participate in God’s restoring work in the world.
