Missions

Our parish is a generous one that reflects the heart of Christ to a broken and dying world.  Jesus commands us to “go into all the world and preach the gospel”.  Also, the prophet Micah, compels us to “do justice, love mercy and walk humbly with our God.”  The Missions Committee works to match up the commands from scripture with the missions budget, while reflecting who we are as a parish.
