Please welcome Rev. Annalise Radcliffe who is here to give us the message this morning, as well as tell us about her work for the RCA's Next Generation Engagement and Growing Young initiatives, so that we might learn more about the work the RCA is doing to reach and grow the younger generation in Christ as well as be encouraged to join in that work ourselves.
Annalise is the Director of Future Church Innovation for the Reformed Church in America. She also serves co-vocationally as the mission executive pastor of City Chapel in Grand Rapids, MI. On the side, she enjoys photography, building towers with her sons, playing 7 Wonders (board game) with her husband Ron, walking the dog, and reading.
