Outreach & Mission
In keeping with our mission to love and serve God and neighbor with open hearts, open hands and open minds, both congregational and individual outreach and mission are vital components in the life of our church and in each of us as we engage in a life committed to Jesus Christ.
We support many outreach and mission programs and activities throughout the year: some initiated by our Mission committee, and others by members who have a passion for a particular cause or situation. Our hope is that our efforts are a daily expression of God's love.
