The Sanctuary Austin: A safe haven
It is our goal to provide a place of sanctuary for all who enter. This is God's church, and you are welcome. We believe in an unconditional loving Christ full of grace who wants to be in relationship with each of us.
Ordination and Installation
Our new minister, Brent Bowden, will be ordained to the gospel ministry and installed as our pastor this Sunday, January 29, 2012 at 5:00 p.m. Please join us for this very special service of ordination and installation. Reception to follow.
A Conversation on Convergence
Recognizing significant shifts in our local and American culture regarding church membership and participation, the Sanctuary has entered a conversation about possible convergence with other progressive, free-church congregations in Austin (see vision statement here). We are exploring ways we can cooperate with each other and strengthen each other. The following churches are engaged in this conversation with us and we commend them to you!
- Congregational Church of Austin, Tom VandeStadt, pastor
- Journey Imperfect Faith Community, Rick and Leslie Diamond, pastors
- University Baptist Church, Larry Bethune, pastor
