Our Vision here at Swift Creek is to Connect with God, Connect with Others & Connect Others with God. All of our ministries should fall into one of these components of our Vision Statement. We will not be the fully devoted followers of Christ we should be if we are not engaging in each of these three areas of our vision. Let me encourage each of us to look through the partial list of ministries below and consider how we are personally fulfilling the vision of our church and God’s calling in our lives.
