Missions
"Feed the hungry, and help those in trouble. Then your light will shine out from the darkness, and the darkness around you will be as bright as noon. The LORD will guide you continually, giving you water when you are dry and restoring your strength. You will be like a well-watered garden, like an ever-flowing spring." Is. 58:10-11 (NLT)
We believe it's not enough just to go to church -- God calls us to shine His light -- to minister in His name in our homes, our neighborhoods, in our schools and workplaces, our communities, our world -- wherever there is loneliness, hunger, hurting, injustice. We are blessed so that we may be a blessing to others. Here are some of the ministries and organizations we serve and support...
In our LOCAL COMMUNITY...
In our REGION...
