Each year, the month of February is designated in our territory as Call and Commitment Month, where we create space for individuals to discern and explore God’s call on their lives. It is a time to reflect, pray, encourage others and journey together as we listen with open hearts to His voice. This year’s theme is Harvest Hands, anchored in Matthew 9:35-38.
