Welcome to The Story

Join with all of Willowdale, as we choose to ground ourselves in God's Word throughout the year. The Story is a condensed, chronological study Bible. It is broken down into 31 chapters, and will give us the opportunity to together, read and experience the one story through which all others are born.

Read The Story in a Group
