LOCAL MISSIONS
Community Impact
Make an impact in your community
“You will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” Acts 1:8
As transformed followers of Jesus, we desire to be the hands and feet of Jesus in our community. God has placed each of us uniquely in a community to share His glory with our neighbors, in our schools, workplaces and more. We would love to walk with you as you journey living missionally right where you are.
