Engage Encounters

Engaging the cultures around us!

A CyLife Engage Encounter originates from our missiology, aligning with our church's mission to cultivate disciples who are Global Christians actively working to fulfill the global mandate commanded by God for the Church.

 

Engage Encounters are designed to include 3 parts:

  • God’s Word - a study on the global thread, mandate, gospel, and task.
  • God’s World – a review to promote understanding, engaging God’s world, and exploring the tribal, Hindu, Muslim and Buddhist worlds.
  • God’s Work – a 5 week study in group sessions designed to promote the lifestyle of living as a Global Christian.



When do I get started?! Glad you asked!

Our local churches are passionately sending missionaries across cultural, linguistic, and geographic barriers to share the Gospel and plant churches among every people group. Now, we invite you to experience this transformative work right here in our local metropolitan community!!!
