Grow
"In the bulb there is a flower;
in the seed, an apple tree;
in cocoons, a hidden promise:
butterflies will soon be free!
In the cold and snow of winter
there's a spring that waits to be,
unrevealed until its season,
something God alone can see."
"Hymn of Promise"

In every one of us there is potential as yet unrealized. There is wisdom, courage, and creativity unrevealed.
The Center for Ministry creates pathways on which you may discover your hidden God-given promise--
-
opening your heart
-
stretching your mind
-
searching your soul
-
building your strength
Is this the season for "something God alone can see" in you to be made visible?
