Join Us In Missions

In our neighborhood. In our world. There are no boundaries.

Get Involved!

Roll up your sleeves and let’s get something done. 

​It might be in our own backyard, or far across the world. We’ll meet some amazing people, make new friends, and reach out our hands to help our brothers and sisters
.

"Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me."

(Matthew 25:40-45, NIV)

Our calling is to look beyond our walls and discover how God invites us to share our faith with others.  That faith sharing  includes our actions as well as our words.
