In starting Lake Hills in Castaic, California, one of our first steps to exegete and understand those in our town was do conduct a Community Survey. We chose to go door to door throughout the neighborhoods of Hidden Lake, Bravo, Northbluffs and Sagecrest on two consecutive Sundays (September 9 and 16).

Each day includes specific tasks to help you discover what missional living is all about, and action steps to start “being Jesus” to those around you!

Each month we make available a complimentary newsletter which is sent directly to your email address.
