outreach
We believe that we should be engaging every person, every day, in every way so that they discover the love and power of Jesus Christ. There are many ways to become a part of this in our church. Through mission trips, serving opportunities within the church, and in the community we hope to provide opportunities to engage the world.
View the opportunities listed below, or download our Local Community Outreach guide for even more ideas.
