MISSIONS & OUTREACH
So Jesus said to them again, “Peace to you! As the Father has sent Me, I also send you.”
John 20:21
As Jesus was God’s personal missionary, He is the perfect model for us to emulate. Jesus sent the twelve out in John 20:21 and now He sends us. We not only go, we go prayerfully and financially assist others that share the Gospel in numerous ways, both at home and across the seas.
So Jesus said to them again, “Peace to you! As the Father has sent Me, I also send you.”
John 20:21
