Rev. Philip Thompson Waringstown Presbyterian Church

“The Church Community Transformation process played a pivotal role in us meeting one of our key vision objectives – “to offer hope to our community through the sharing of the good news of Jesus Christ”.  It forced us to think about the community we are part of and ask hard questions about our relevance and place in Waringstown.  It gave structure to conversations, grounded our discussion in Scripture and enabled us to translate conclusions into action.  There were unexpected benefits and blessings as well. The process helped to enhance and reinvigorate our worship, fellowship and discipleship. CCT services enabled people in our church family who perhaps felt on the fringes of things to have a voice, engage in prayer for our community and get involved.  I warmly commend the Church Community Transformation process to pastors and church leaders.”
