OUTREACH FOCUS AREAS

Make the church more inviting and receptive to families with children. Enhance our identity messages, materials, and methods to communicate better to those outside our congregation what is special about Ravensworth and how through us God can make a difference in their lives and the lives of others. Reach out inside to connect better with and retain existing members and long-term visitors.
