“Church Outside the Walls...ACTS 1:8 Ministry 2011”
 

                                                                                                                            






Loving God...Loving Neighbor”

   by doing ministry in the area around our

church.  We believe that the call from Acts 1:8 


“You will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem (at home), and in all Judea (neighboring areas) and Samaria (other cities) and to the ends of the earth.”  


This is our mandate to reach out with the love and care of Jesus Christ to all people, but beginning in our own neighborhood.


Come join us in this new ministry today as we spend the next few weeks preparing for many great days of outreach.  Brad Cozart, our Witness Chair will be developing a team of people to visit each home in our neighborhood to seek out how we can minister to our neighbors.  Jennifer Nelson, our Outreach Chair will take that information and develop teams of people to minister to individuals, to families, to shut-ins, to nursing homes, and wherever God shows us a need we can meet in the name of Jesus Christ!


What can you do?   Volunteer to either Brad or Jennifer or call the church office and let us know your interest in being the hands and feet of Christ as we move “Outside the walls of the church” in the days to follow.  Our mission is to truly LOVE GOD AND LOVE NEIGHBOR!


Call the office today at 972-875-7491.
