Get Plugged into Missions & Outreach
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]The church exists because of the gospel. The gospel is the power that creates church community. One reason the church exists is because its goal is to proclaim the gospel. That’s why we’re called to be a missional community. For our church, being missional means being deeply invested in missions, community outreach, church planting, and evangelism.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”60px”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” gap=”10″ css=”.vc_custom_1586951986864{padding-top: 30px !important;padding-bottom: 30px !important;background-color: #323232 !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_single_image image=”6803″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text]
Missions
We support missionaries – some of them are overseas, some of them are in the US. We support them in prayer, and we support them financially. But we don’t want to promote a view of the missionary that’s unbiblical. Our commitment is to the biblical idea of a missionary – and according to the Bible, every Christian is called to be on mission. The gospel calls us all in and sends us all out with a message of hope to proclaim and a life of hope to live. So, whether you’ve been a Christian for 5 months or 50 years, you are called to live a missional life.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” gap=”10″ css=”.vc_custom_1587069721137{padding-top: 30px !important;padding-bottom: 30px !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_single_image image=”6807″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text]
Community Outreach
The gospel doesn’t just save individuals, it renews this world. The gospel brings hope and healing to dark places, and we reach out individually and through other agencies. As the church, we want to be a blessing to our neighbors, and to the world. We “seek the peace of the city” (Jeremiah 29:7) by sponsoring seasonal neighborhood outreach events, by partnering with local and national ministries and agencies to provide relief to the poor, hope for children, and practical help for women (and men) in crisis, and through our other diaconal ministries to our community.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” gap=”10″ css=”.vc_custom_1587069721137{padding-top: 30px !important;padding-bottom: 30px !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_single_image image=”6808″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text]
Evangelism
Being a Christian is hard. Most people in our culture were not raised in Christian homes, but even if you were, it can be difficult to embrace all that Christianity teaches. Sometimes it’s hard because it seems counterintuitive. Sometimes it’s hard because the gospel is a dazzling, demanding proclamation. And talking to others about it can be both scary and difficult. We know that. We understand that. So we’re committed to training and equipping people to learn how to talk about the gospel in ways that invite dialogue and further conversation with others.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
