Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.
Matthew 28:19-20

We are a body of believers dedicated to spreading the Good News of Jesus Christ to a lost and broken world.
As a non-denominational church, we have the freedom to choose who we support each year. Our Missions Committee communicates regularly with our missionaries.
Our Missions Committee gives a “Missions Moment” once a month during our worship service. Several times a year we invite a missionary to share on a Sunday Morning as well. Recent updates from our missionaries can be found on a bulletin board in the Fellowship Hall.
Our support includes sending out members of our own church to spread the Gospel around the globe!
We love to support individuals and groups from our local body of believers who are called to share Jesus around the world. We believe that those who pray for our missionaries and support them financially are taking part in this important work.
The laborers are few…
We are called to play our part in the process of planting, watering, and reaping the harvest. Jesus said, “The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest.” (Matt 9:37-38). While we are not all called to pack our bags and travel to far away places, we are all called to pray, to give financially, and to share Jesus wherever we may go!
