The Way of Christ

The Way of Christ is a spiritual renewal event sponsored by Mennonite, Brethren, and Church of the Brethren believers in Illinois.  Through this three-day event participants share in a vibrant portrait of the grace-filled life Jesus lived and taught. It is a time where the hope of Christ is celebrated, the believer's purpose in life claimed, the love of God in Jesus proclaimed.

Purpose of The Way of Christ

In today's world, does our faith permeate all areas of our lives? Can it be sustained in our living? Can it grow there? Can it transform the hearts of the people with whom we share our lives? Is it relevant for this time? Those in the Way of Christ movement think so!

The Way of Christ movement does not propose a new type of spirituality. It reinforces a simple intentional one through which the believers grace-filled life may; in a natural loving way, be lived and shared with others.
