Mission Statement...
Salt & Light is comprised of several different groups of married couples that combine for a common purpose. We range from the late 20's to the early 50's but have a few outside that range. Most have children. We are engineers, salesmen, shift workers, and business owners. We have a large group of home school families and quite a few that don't. Several of our mothers work in the home, and many work outside the home. Because of this, the members of our class seem to have busy, crazy schedules; and we work with this in mind.
High Tech, High TouchWe make full use of our SnL Yahoo Groups. This allows us to stay in contact via email regarding needs within the class and various prayer requests. The website maintains our calendar with socials, important dates, and lessons you may have missed. We even send out an automatic reminder to bring snacks if you signed up for that Sunday.
But along with this high tech for busy individuals, we maintain a high touch. Our Care Groups help bring a more intimate relationship between members. Also, we have an active social schedule because we know you can't be at everything. By having a lot of scheduled activities, it allows our members to schedule what they can without feeling guilty about missing others activities.
Though a lot of our activities are scheduled for fun, we also set up times when we serve others. Based upon the task, we try to include children so they can learn and understand by our example.
What combines us is the whole family foundation we bring to the class.
So, if you are married, have children, or are thinking hard about it, have no idea how to fit another 10 minutes in your schedule, but realize you need to grow as a couple and a family in order to be the Salt and the Light of the world, welcome.
