Our Outreach

Sharing God’s Word is all about moving beyond our church walls into the community around us to do God’s work in the world. We encourage our members to follow their gifts. Our members plan and facilitate outreach both individually and corporately depending on their interests. Our Social Ministry and Global Mission Committee is a great resource for members who want to coordinate outreach. Contact the office to get in touch with them!
