We are on mission around the world … and we would love for you to join us.
Our purpose statement comes from the pages of Scripture …
But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and
Samaria , and to the end of the earth.
Acts 1:8, ESV
Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age. Matt 28:19-20, ESV
