The fourth weekly connection is community.  We believe God has placed us as a church in this community for His purpose.  Therefore, we need to be involved.  Being involved also means understanding that God has blessed us to be a blessing to others.

 

This may be volunteering to coach kids at the YMCA, volunteering in a local nursing home, serving on the PFA at Swimming Pen Creek Elementary School (our adopted community school) or your child's school.  The list is endless.  Basically, discover a place outside of the church facility to serve and love others for Christ. 

 

This also extends to our global mission.  We are called to reach our Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria and the ends of the world.  Those cities were listed in Acts 1:8 referring to the community around the first century church.  That commission has never expired.  Through this connection, we can be "on mission" throughout the world.  This mission emphasis is part of our DNA as a church.  It's just who we are.  Click the Missions tab above to discover where we're going and possibly where God would have you go.
