ALL CHURCH MISSION TRIP

 

Please prayerfully consider joining us for All Church Mission Trip, June 28 - July 3, as we serve the LORD and those in need by working at the Presbyterian Disaster Assistance Center in Ferncliff, AR. We need joyful workers of all abilities who feel called to share in the love and servitude of Jesus Christ. Besides the Presbyterian Center, we will be helping with other local missions and agencies, all while growing in faith and community as we build bonds with our brothers and sisters in Christ. Please contact Blake Stephens for details.

 But be sure to fear the LORD and serve him faithfully with all your heart; consider what great things he has done for you. 1 Samuel 12:24
