Pursue Your Calling

“Go Further Together” means you don’t need to find your way alone. At Encompass, we recognize everyone comes to the Pathway with their own experiences and insights into the journey. Scroll down to learn more, or contact us via the form below!

We use Encounter, Explore, Engage, and Embark to describe ministry opportunities of short, mid, and long-term durations. Much more than isolated experiences, these opportunities are how we commit to develop you personally and professionally over time so you’re prepared to flourish in a life of ministry.
