outreach & missions

“Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, ‘Whom shall I send? And who 
will go for us?" And I said, "Here am I. Send me!" Isaiah 6:8

To train, encourage and exhort the church concerning their participation in the LORD's Great Commission. We believe that each Christian is called to a wonderful life of obedience to Jesus. One of His clearest commands is that of bringing lost people to a saving knowledge of Him. There is no Christian that is exempt and no place on earth is to be overlooked. God calls some to reach the lost across the street and others to reach across the world.
