Missions
Mission programs are the foundation for spreading the good news of Jesus Christ, and should become a part of every Christian’s lifestyle and be incorporated into the life of every congregation.
There are many in the world and our community who are sick, hungry and lonely; and many others with spiritual, physical, and emotional needs.
