Our Mission & Vision MATT. 28:19-20, EPH. 4:12-13 Williamsburg Community Chapel is an interdenominational family of faith called to make disciples of Jesus Christ by: meeting people where they are on their spiritual journey ( ), getting people into God’s Word and God’s Word into people ( ), and preparing believers for works of service to foster unity and maturity in the Body of Christ ( ).
“Freely you have received, freely give.” — Matthew 10:8b The Bible has a lot to say about how we steward the resources God has entrusted to us. For every message series we will highlight one verse that relates to both the theme of the series and our reasonable response to give back to God, who gave everything for us.

We have been studying the Gospel which leads to a right relationship with God, but there’s more to the story. The Gospel leads to a right relationship with God AND right relationships with people. Yet we know there are speed bumps and road blocks on the path to right relationships with others, and often issues surrounding forgiveness are lurking beneath relational breakdowns. We will spend five weeks looking at forgiveness through the lens of biblical relationships that required forgiveness. Each relationship will help us understand a different aspect of forgiveness and help us gain insight into how we are to forgive, when we are to forgive and why we are to forgive. We hope the whole story of the Gospel, right relationship with God and others, will be embraced and applied in our community, as we study The Gospel in Relationships. CHAPEL BULLETIN JANUARY 17, 2016
