Fresh Expressions in the NIC Monthly Gatherings

We’ve had a great kickoff to our Fresh Expressions ministry here in the NIC!

Michael Beck (the Director of Fresh Expressions for the UMC) continues to lead a monthly cohort for folks who are interested in starting small ministries in out-of-the-way places using outside-the-box strategies.

Second Thursday of the month at 7:30 p.m.

Even if you have just the seed of an idea, please join us.

To learn more about Fresh Expressions and its connections to the UMC, this page has several articles.

Questions? Contact Rev. Christian Coon, Director of Congregational Development.
