I am pumped about our launch of the Mandarin Home Garden! As you know, our mission is working together to guide people into a growing relationship with Jesus. And a growing relationship with Jesus must be something that begins in a Christ-centered home. Hence, the Mandarin Home Garden is a resource to help equip you to cultivate a Christ-centered home.
The Mandarin Home Garden is filled with a wide variety of tools that are designed to help you be intentional about your faith in your personal life, marriage, and parenting. These tools will include, but are not limited to, ideas for family devotionals, discussions with your children and teens, and date night ideas for you and your spouse.
I want to emphasize that these tools are not limited to parents or married people. All of us have the responsibility to grow, and all of us have the responsibility to help others grow, especially the next generation. Whatever your life stage, you will find something of value in the Mandarin Home Garden.
All the Home Garden Tools will be found at the Home Garden Center in the Foyer and on the Mandarin Church of Christ website (mandarincc.com). Periodically throughout the year, more tools will be added to the Home Garden Center, along with an initiative to encourage you to continue cultivating a Christ-centered home.
Feel free to take Tools to give to friends and neighbors, or direct them to the Home Garden Center on our website.
Thank you to our world class youth minister, Dakota Thornton, and to his team for preparing the Mandarin Home Garden for this launch. I can’t wait to see what God does next!
