God's power
changes lives. Corporately as a church, we obey His Great Commission
by reaching out with God's love to others. Anywhere in the
world, the faithfulness of one individual can make a difference.
While
we can't all go everywhere, we have a vision of spreading the
good news that encompasses the whole world. We provide financial
support to carry the good news of Jesus Christ, and will engage
in short-term projects around the world as God allows. We have
many opportunities for you to get involved.
"Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing
them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy
Spirit,
and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.
And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." Matthew
28:19-20
"But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come
upon you; and you shall be witnesses to me in Jerusalem, and
in all
Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth." Acts
1:8
Community Outreach:
We are constantly seeking opportunities to serve our communities.
It is our desire to be relevant to the community and surrounding
area by
showing them the love that God has for each one of them. We've
raked leaves, hosted a family fun day in the Village Pak, roofed
the home of someone financially and physically unable to, and
ministered to Senior Citizens. What's next? Got a great idea?
Let pastor Ken or one of the Eldewrs know.
