Church of the Savior

In lieu of our upcoming discipleship meeting in Washington D.C. at Church of the Savior, I thought this post would be interesting for our team to read.

Dear Colleagues,

You probably heard me talk about the Church of the Saviour in Washington, D.C., and its pastor, Gordon Cosby. I was a member there in the 1970’s, and Gordon was my spiritual mentor; he also was the pastor at our marriage. Karin co-founded Columbia Road Health Services, one of its many ministries. Recently, at the age of 91, he preached his last sermon. Yesterday, the Washington Post featured a front page article about him and the remarkable ministry of this church. Here’s the link to that article:

I thought you might simply be interested in reading it, especially as we continue to explore what it means to be a missional church.
