Mass Event Info

We are a CHOSEN people. We celebrate as God’s community of believers. Through Jesus Christ, we are God’s CHOSEN people. His CHOSEN nation includes all of our Christian friends and family at home, around the world, and even all Christians who have ever lived!

At Saturday’s opening Mass Event, the Rev. John Nunes will begin the group’s journey thru CHOSEN. Participants will also celebrate God’s grace in providing the church with 30 years of Gatherings.

Check back here for a Mass Event wrap-up following each evening’s event.
