Our 2025 Missions Gathering is an opportunity to join with 30 of our local and global mission partners to explore Jesus’ words to His disciples, “As you go, proclaim this message: ‘The Kingdom of heaven has come near.’”
Living on mission is at the core of who we are as Jesus' disciples too, not just a calling for a select few.
As we go about our daily lives, how might God be calling us to reveal Himself to those around us?
When we posture our hearts to listen to His Spirit’s leading, He may lead us to our neighbor or the nations. The beauty of the Church is that we get to live out that mission in different ways. As a church family of all ages together with our partners, let’s explore how we can hear and respond to making Him known as we pursue Kingdom life on earth.
