Local Missionary Work
  • The members of our congregation are active in our community.  On their own some of our members attend public meetings in order to help serve their community in positive ways,

    • working when possible toward community betterment and promoting and encouraging
    Christian goals and standards within the community. Many are involved in personal evangelism
    for those in the community who express an interest in personal Bible study. Individual members also have studies in their homes and will go to the homes of those who prefer to study the Bible
    on a one on one basis.
  • Church members sing at one of the local nursing homes once a month and their are those who

    • on their own visit the nursing homes to share Christ and lend genuine friendship and encouragement to those living there. Our church also participates in the "meals on wheels"
    program carrying meals to the elderly living in the community.  There are also those who as individuals help church members and other elderly of our community living at home but in need
    of assistance.
  • Vacation Bible school and our youth activities are designed to be an outreach program for

    • the youth of our community. Many individual members provide rides for children who wish to  attend  Bible School and church services but  are in need of transportation.
  • Our ladies in Ladies Bible class provide service where they are needed in the church and

    • the  community which require more than one person to implement.  Examples are:  collecting
    food items for a children's home in a neighboring community, making baby bibs for new
    mothers in the community, and preparing Bread of Life (small loaves of bread)to welcome
    visitors and "Sunshine Baskets" for the sick or grieving.
  • Our congregation also helps to support local TV broadcast of church of Christ gospel

    • programming.
    Our members are involved in many more individual projects at work in our community, but
    hese are just a few.


    Jas 1:27*  Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.
    Gal 2:9-10  and when they perceived the grace that was given to me, James and Cephas and John, who were reputed to be pillars, gave to me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, that we should go to the Gentiles and they to the circumcised; 10only they would have us remember the poor, which very thing I was eager to do.
