This
is the mandate of our Missions Committee:
“To see the Gospel of
Christ proclaimed outside of our congregation through support of
missions which fulfill the great commission of Christ as
proclaimed by the Lord in Matthew 28:19-20 and Acts 1:8”.
We support a
variety of missions and ministries throughout the world as well
as close to home. Currently we financially support
organizations and missionaries
with
FEB French Missions,
FEB
International,
Heritage College & Seminary,
New Tribes Mission,
SIM,
Trans World Radio,
New Life Camp, & Word of Life
Ministries. We also make a point of inviting them
to make a presentation of their work when they are home on
furlough; however, we welcome missionaries to come and present
their work, whether currently supported by the church
financially or not.
We
also welcome the opportunity to hear from those just starting
for the field. This usually happens at least every other month
during the year. We also highlight a particular missionary in
the bulletin and make their prayer letters available each week
and give updates in morning service as necessary.
Our greatest desire is to see our own people catch the vision
and to this end we joyfully help support our young people as
they work in summer camps and anyone who might express a desire
to go to the field as short term missionaries.
