Missions & Outreach
How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news,
who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation,
who say to Zion, "Your God reigns!"
-Isaiah 52:7

The heart of our Outreach & Missions Ministry is to be the hands and feet of Jesus both locally and internationally. We do this through meeting practical and financial needs of ministries dedicated to sharing the gospel of Jesus with others. We also participate in a variety of community outreaches with the hope of spreading the gospel and inviting others to church. Join us!
