A Place to Belong

At COGS, as Congregation of the Good Shepherd is affectionately known, I found a place to belong. I appreciate the worship saturated with scripture and weekly communion. I appreciate the opportunities to make friends--lunches after Sunday service, a variety of special events, and a weekly small group. I appreciate the openness to people from a variety of church backgrounds--or none at all--and commitment to listening to and including one another, even when we don't agree. As a woman, I appreciate that I've been welcomed and encouraged to use my gifts in many ways. Becoming a part of COGS has made my life in Beijing so much better!
