Ten years ago, Central UMC in Galveston restarted with four people, a young pastor, and a dream to be more connected to their community. Instead of building a mountain of plans, the got to listening and learning. Out of that came a mission to serve folks without homes and folks who for whatever reason don’t fit into church as normal. They rip out half the pews, replaces those with couches, started a bike repair ministry, worked with the local med school to open a full service clinic, built a ton of relationships, and became the keepers of even more stories. Their journey is tale of what is possible if you dig openheartedly into your specific context.
